INDOMITA

I have fulfilled a dream this year with my first solo album, thanks to Pentatone by whom it has been produced and released, to the orchestra and chorus of the Opera Carlo Felice Genova conducted by Sesto Quatrini, and to the support provided by the Fondazione Paolo e Carolina Zani for art and culture. I am pleased because these partners, who are all close to my heart, have chosen to invest not in a self-referential album, but in a more coherent historical and theatrical project.

I often say that I worship Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti and Verdi, irrespective of the opportunities to perform in their operas that I have had or will have in future. As a result, this album stems from what I consider to be my roots, well-established thanks to the lessons learnt from my teachers, and internalised by listening to the great singers of the past. For that reason, I have chosen to record five great scenes from operas in which I have already performed, or am about to perform on stage. It was this challenge that prompted the title of the CD, Indomita, because each of the protagonists to whom I have lent my voice is an indomitable heroine (and woman).
