Linda Faye Miller received international recognition for her<br />

appearance in Martin Scorsese’s Academy Award winning film Age<br />

of Innocence. Her onscreen performance, as Swedish soprano<br />

Christine Nilsson singing the love-duet from Gounod’s Faust, opens<br />

the film, igniting the love story between Michelle Pfeiffer’s and Daniel<br />

Day-Lewis’ characters.<br />

In Calgary and Edmonton, she appeared twice for Alberta Ballet<br />

singing Four Last Songs of Strauss in the ballet of the same name<br />

by renowned choreographer, the late Rudi van Dantzig, who<br />

sang in Alberta Ballet’s Carmen and Carmina Burana.<br />
