In her new album, young American singer Nadine Sierra tells her own story through three strong romantic heroines: Violetta (La Traviata), Lucia (Lucia di Lammermoor) and Juliette (Romeo and Juliet). Like them, this soprano has fought against social pressures and conventions, making her dream a reality in the process. She’s always wanted to sing and was convinced she was made for opera, as the title of this release proudly claims.

Nadine Sierra’s story is also one of revenge, one of a new generation that was finally able to break away from society’s expectations—unlike her Portuguese grandmother, who also wanted to become an opera singer, but was forced to assume the role of housewife.

Accompanied by the RAI Symphony Orchestra conducted by Riccardo Frizza, Nadine Sierra excels in this repertoire which seems, indeed, made for her. Her agile, velvety voice triumphs over all obstacles with such ease; it’s no wonder she’s one of the most sought-after vocalists today. It’s no coincidence that this release coincides with Nadine Sierra's busy (and prestigious) calendar for 2021/2022, which includes performances in Rigoletto in Paris and Milan, Lucia di Lammermoor in Naples, Munich and at the MET, a recital in Liege and Mahler’s Second Symphony in Berlin.

As a young modern woman, Nadine Sierra gives fans around the world daily updates on social media. She recognises opera’s need to evolve and connect with as many people as possible. © François Hudry/Qobuz
