Alcina, Festival Opera, 2026

“Mezzo-soprano Nina Jones (Oberto) sang with sweetness and warmth...”
— The Opera Tattler
“Nina Jones was charming in the role of the teenage boy Oberto...”
— Nick Jones

The Marriage of Figaro, Pocket Opera, 2025

“Nina Jones is a Cherubino who pops into scenes with electric energy and devilish spunk... singing with a voice that combines pleasing lightness with just enough tremble... their Cherubino holds their own musically while also being hysterical.”
— Eddie Reynolds
“Nina Jones [left] everyone in stitches as the hormonally addled pageboy Cherubino.”
— Joshua Kosman

La Flora, Ars Minerva, November 2024

“Mezzo-soprano Nina Jones was perfectly clean and clear as Geminio, their sound is resonant and sweet.”
— The Opera Tattler
“Mezzo-soprano Nina Jones brought a captivating snark to the amoral and apparently victorious Geminio.”
— Nicholas Jones, San Francisco Classical Voice

Olimpia Vendicata, Ars Minerva, October 2023

“Mezzo-soprano Nina Jones has a very clean, crisp sound as Bireno.”
— The Opera Tattler
“ In [their] debut performance with Ars Minerva, mezzo-soprano Nina Jones was appropriately duplicitous as the womanizing Bireno.”
