Her repertoire, which includes bel canto, verismo and French romantic roles, demonstrates her versatility and mastery of a wide range of genres. Angela Gheorghiu is often praised for her natural musicality and elegance on stage, making her not only an accomplished opera singer, but also a true diva in the original sense.
Sharing the stage with her will be the dazzling tenor Saimir Pirgu, whose clear, brilliant voice excels in lyric tenor roles. He is celebrated for his emotional and sensitive interpretations on the world’s great opera stages.
Under the baton of Maestro Nayden Todorov of the Czech National Symphony Orchestra, this encounter between the two voices promises a captivating exchange and a lively moment of emotion for opera lovers.
