We are very happy to see her honored publicly for her work,” comments CCOC Board President Cory Colton. She has an unparalleled passion for nurturing opera talent, and has remained focused on that mission through Capitol City Opera Company for more than 30 years. “For those of us involved in Capitol City Opera Company, we have long recognized Donna’s extraordinary achievements. Under Donna’s leadership, Capitol City Opera Company has provided a training ground for Atlanta’s young opera singers by creating opportunities for them to learn and perform repertoire and refine their vocal and acting skills on a professional level. Angel, who founded Capitol City Opera Company (CCOC) in 1983, was nominated by the CCOC Board of Directors to recognize her exceptional dedication and singular vision in creating an opera company whose sole purpose is to champion Atlanta’s local opera talent. With the Partners in Excellence Lifetime Award, Opera Volunteers International (OVI) honors individuals or support groups who have made outstanding contributions to their opera companies and their communities. Angel will receive the award at OVI’s Awards Dinner on Friday, June 20 at San Francisco’s War Memorial Opera House. This will be the first time the award has been given to an individual from Georgia.
