Lufuno Ndou is a South African-born mezzo-soprano who studied at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire. Some of the roles she performed during this time include Zweite Knabe in the Conservatoire’s production of Mozart’s 'Die Zauberflöte' and Mercedes in the Quintet from Bizet’s 'Carmen' in the 2018 production of Opera Scenes. She also performed in Grange Park Opera’s 'Porgy and Bess' (directed by Jean-Pierre van der Spuy) as part of the chorus.
Lufuno's operatic debut came by way of Pegasus Opera Company, where she performed in the company's 2023 double bill production of 'Ruth' & 'Six of Calais' (directed by Cassiopeia Berkeley-Ayepong) as a narrator in 'Ruth'.
