Julie Roset

The winner of the Metropolitan Opera's Laffont Competition in 2022, soprano Julie Roset is a rising vocal artist. Specializing in Baroque music, Roset had already released several albums by the time she reached her mid-twenties. Roset was born in Avignon, France, in 1997. She was singing almost before she was talking, and a grandmother recalled her being enrolled in a television concert by mezzo-soprano Cecilia Bartoli when she was three or four years old. Roset lived and breathed music even as a child. She enrolled at the Conservatoire du Grand Avignon, studying music theory and flute and singing in a choir. When she was 15, she was allowed to begin vocal studies with Valérie Marestin. In her last year, she also took classes at the Conservatoire d'Aix-en-Provence, working with Monique Zanetti and conductor Raphaël Pichon, and formed an ensemble, La Mascarade. With her interest in Baroque growing, Roset was introduced to the early music program at the Haute Ecole de Musique de Genève by a friend and graduated from that school with honors in 2019. By that time, she had already begun appearing on recordings, including the album Claudio Monteverdi: Lettera Amorosa and an album of madrigals by Jacob Arcadelt, both with Cappella Mediterranea in 2018. Roset went on to the Julliard School in New York, studying with Edith Wiens and earning an artist diploma in 2022. She made several important operatic appearances while still in school and just after, including a Paris debut as Amour in Jean-Joseph de Mondonville's Titon et l'Aurore under veteran conductor William Christie and his ensemble Les Arts Florissants. She appeared in Rameau's Les Indes Galantes at the Opéra Royal de Versailles and sang multiple roles in Monteverdi's Orfeo under Cappella Mediterranea conductor Leonardo García Alarcón, with whom she also performed in Bach's Mass in B minor, BWV 232. In 2020, Roset made her solo recording debut with Ensemble Clematis, Nun danket alle Gott, on the Ricercar label. The year 2022 brought Roset not only her Metropolitan Opera prize but also a sophomore release on Ricercar, an album featuring Handel's Salve Regina, HWV 241, with García Alarcón conducting. Roset's schedule for the 2022-2023 season was busy and featured a tour with Philharmonia Baroque.
