Emily Pogorelc, Soprano

Young American soprano Emily Pogorelc has been praised for her “big, soaring voice with wonderfully agile coloratura and zinging high notes” (Chicago on the Aisle). During the 2021/2022 season, she returns to Bayerische Staatsoper where she will perform Adina in L’elisir d’amore, Musetta in La bohème, and Lauretta in Gianni Schicchi, among other roles. As a guest artist, she will sing Cherubino in Le nozze di Figaro with the Glyndebourne Festival, while in concert she will perform Brahms’ Ein deutsches Requiem with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Bertrand de Billy, Mozart concert arias in a concert with Rolando Villazon and the Luxembourg Philharmonie and a program of arias written and heard by Mozart in 1771 with Classical Opera in London. She also was a prize winner in the 2021 Operalia Competition at the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow.
