Press Highlights
“Soprano Inna Dukach was an instantly arresting Vanessa.”
— The Washington Post
“Never appearing to reach for effects, the soprano moved easily throughout her range, with colorful shaping and shading, and had the art of making each phrase sound as though it had just occurred to her.”
— Opera News
“…capable of singing that was so artless as to be understated, with warm corners to a voice that moved smoothly up and down the staff and was enlisted in the service of the acting."
— Times Union

In addition to performing, Inna maintains a private psychotherapy practice for high-performing professionals and creatives.
