Elīna Garanča

The career of mezzo-soprano Elīna Garanča had a meteoric rise following a 2003 Salzburg Festival, where she seemed to acclaim as Annio in Mozart’s La Clemenza di Tito. As critics and admirers attest, her vocal skill is immense. She’s appeared on many chart-topping recordings with Anna Netrebko and on the Grammy-winning Vivaldi opera Compact disc Bajazet, with soprano Patrizia Ciofi. Garanča was certainly chosen for all those effective efforts due to the wonder of her creamy, effective tone of voice and her outstanding dramatic abilities. Garanča possesses a big repertory of operatic assignments, and her concert and recital repertory can be wide. Garanča’s recordings can be found on DG, Ondine, Virgin Classics, and TDK, and, by a 2017 discharge offering arias by Mozart and Vivaldi, Erato. Unīna Garanča was created on Sept 16, 1976, in Riga, Latvia, after that area of the Soviet Union. Both her parents had been professional music artists: her dad was a choral conductor and her mom a vocalist and voice instructor on the Latvian Academy of Music and Latvian Country wide Opera. In 1996 she enrolled at that same academy and examined tone of voice with Sergei Martinov. She also examined in Austria as well as the U.S. Garanča acquired a watershed calendar year in 1999: she joined up with the Meiningen Opera (Südthüringisches Staatstheater) and in addition gained the Mirjam Helin Performing Competition in Finland. The next year she became a member of the Frankfurt Opera, where she sang many assignments, including Rosina in Rossini’s The Barber of Seville. In 2001, her initial documenting, Arie Favorite, offering arias by Mozart, Donizetti, and Bellini, was released over the Ondine label. Garanča implemented her 2003 Salzburg Celebration triumph using a string of amazing debuts, including on the Vienna Condition Opera (2004) and Paris Opera (2005), both in the function of Dorabella. Garanča agreed upon an exclusive documenting agreement with DG in 2005, the initial fruits coming the next year using the Mozart Record, which also highlighted Netrebko. Garanča’s 2008 debut on the Met as Rosina was a feeling, and she implemented with equally amazing performances on the Deutsche Oper in Berlin as Octavian in Richard Strauss’ Der Rosenkavalier as well as the Bavarian Condition Opera in Munich as Adalgisa in Bellini’s Norma. Among her following recordings was Aria Cantilena on DG, a assortment of tracks and arias by Offenbach, Villa-Lobos, yet others. The 2010s noticed continuing triumphs for Garanča, both for the operatic stage and in the documenting studio room. Romantique, her documenting of arias using the Filarmonica del Teatro Comunale di Bologna, earned the renowned ECHO Klassik prize in Germany in 2013. Other Garanča albums, including 2016’s Revive, have already been thematically organized choices of arias from main operas. On stage she’s continued to favour mainstream Italian and French jobs, time for the Metropolitan Opera as Sara in Donizetti’s Roberto Devereux in 2016. Garanča is usually wedded to conductor Karel Tag Chichon, with whom she’s experienced two daughters.
