Made for Opera - Vinyl

Nadine Sierra's childhood intuition - that she was born to sing opera - has proved correct in every way and is reflected in the title of her second solo album for DG. The dramatic presence, searing passion and technical brilliance for which the American lyric soprano regularly scores rave reviews are captured in 'Made for Opera', which trains the spotlight on three of the most demanding roles in the repertoire - Verdi's Violetta, Donizetti's Lucia and Gounod's Juliette. Recorded with the Orchestra Sinfonica Nazionale della Rai and Capella Cracoviensis under Riccardo Frizza, the album not only reflects Nadine Sierra's command of bel canto technique and rich range of vocal colours, but also documents her insights into the psychology of the ill-starred heroines of 'La traviata', 'Lucia di Lammermoor' and 'Roméo et Juliette'.
