The Italian Rosa Feola (*1986) belongs to the select circle of singers whose soprano voice shines in the heights without losing its soft suppleness.
Feola first achieved great international attention in 2010 when she won the Second Prize, the Audience Prize and the Zarzuela Prize at Plácido Domingo’s Operalia Competition. Much acclaimed debuts and engagements followed at Milan’s Teatro alla Scala and Teatro La Fenice Venice, the Metropolitan Opera New York, the Vienna State Opera, the Zurich Opera House, the Bavarian State Opera Munich and the festival stages in Salzburg, Ravenna and Glyndebourne, to name but a few stages.
The soprano’s repertoire includes the roles of Gilda (‘Rigoletto’), Susanna (‘Le Nozze di Figaro’), Musetta (‘La bohème’), Violetta (‘La traviata’), Corinna (‘Il viaggio à Reims’), Lauretta (‘Gianni Schicci’) or the title role of Lucia di Lammermoor. In addition to the great operatic works, Feola also performs in recitals, from contemplative recitals with piano to Rossini’s Stabat Mater.
