Known for her “scene-stealing” charisma, soprano Amy Owens’ career has taken her to some of America’s most beloved venues, as she performs with acclaimed symphonies, philharmonics, operas, ensembles, theatres and art song societies around the country. A versatile collaborative artist and respected pedagogue, pianist Kendra Bigley has performed frequently at The Trust with well-known artists. She has worked extensively in musical theatre as an award-winning music director, conductor, vocal coach and accompanist.
Joining Owens and Bigley will be Macedonian-born singer-songwriter, Vasil Garvanliev. In the music business since the age of 7, Vasil's 30-year international professional music journey is quite diverse: from a child pop star to a member and soloist for many choirs to over 50 roles as a leading baritone opera singer.

He graduated from the Glenn Gould School and the prestigious Opera School at the University of Toronto with honors and was a member of the Calgary Opera Emerging Artists. He’s performed as a soloist at festivals including Marlboro Summer, Stratford Summer, Toronto Summer, Britten-Pears, Grachten Festival, Banff Center and Tafelmusik. On the concert stage, he has also been a soloist for Faure & Brahms Requiem, Mahler Rückert Lieder, Handel’s Messiah with Victoria Symphony, Regina Symphony, Montreal Symphony and University of Toronto Symphony. Equally at home on the opera stage, a few of his highlight roles are Don Giovanni, Leporello, Figaro and Don Alfonso. In 2024, Vasil released his first Holiday EP, “Christmas Day,” with celebrated, sold-out performances throughout Chicago. In fall 2025, he'll premiere his first crossover album, where pop, classical and Balkan folk unite.
