Description:

The latest album by a young American soprano who has performed in the world's top opera houses, her voice has been praised for its beauty, flowing technique, and rich musicality, and American soprano Nadine Sierra has been hailed as one of the most promising young talents in the opera world today. She has starred in some of the world's most prestigious opera houses and has accomplished what many young sopranos only dream of doing. Nadine has felt since childhood that she was "born for opera. I was always sure of one thing," she says. I always knew one thing: I love to sing. From the moment I woke up in the morning until the end of the day, all I could think about was singing," Nadine says. On her latest album, Nadine sings three of the most beautiful, challenging, and dramatic roles from 19th century Romantic opera: Donizetti's Lucia ("Lucia di Lammermoor"), Verdi's Violetta ("La Traviata"), and Gounod's Juliette ("Romeo and Juliette").
