Info zu Pergolesi: Stabat Mater

Sonya Yoncheva ist der neue Star am Opernhimmel. Nach triumphalen Erfolgen an der MET eroberte sie auch die Berliner Staatsoper und begeisterte Publikum und Kritik auch am Royal Opera House in London in der Titelrolle in Bellinis Oper 'Norma'. 'Sensationell', urteilte 'The Spectator', und 'sie überstrahlte alles', meinte Deutschlandradio. Die Sony Classical Exklusiv-Künstlerin gehört unbestritten aktuell zu den gefragtesten Top-Sopranistinnen. Dass ihre Stimme auch für Barock-Partien wunderbar klingt, bewies sie in einem von Presse und Publikum gefeierten Konzert aus dem Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris im Juni dieses Jahres mit Pergolesis berühmtem 'Stabat Mater', welches einige der schönsten Duette der Musikgeschichte enthält. Solistin neben Yoncheva war die für ihre Rossini- und Bizet-Darbietungen bekannte französische Mezzosopranistin Karine Deshayes, es musizierte das Ensemble Amaryllis

Karine Deshayes
After brilliant musical studies having been a pupil of Mireille Alcantara and receiving advice from Régine Crespin, Karine Deshayes first joined the troupe of the Lyon Opera, where she performed in the roles of Cherubino, Stephano, among others, and especially in her first Rossini role as Rosina.

His career quickly took off afterwards. She was invited to perform on all the major French stages: Avignon, Lyon Strasbourg, Marseille, Toulouse, Tours, Chorégies d’Orange, Bordeaux etc. She regularly performed at the Paris Opera where she won great acclaim in the Rossini roles of Angelina, Rosina, Elena, but also as Poppea in Monteverdi’s L’incoronazione di Poppea, Sesto (in Handel’s Giulio Cesare), Romeo (in Bellini’s I Capuleti e I Montecchi ) and in the Mozart roles of Cherubino and Dorabella. It was also at the Paris Opera that she took on the role of Carmen for the first time, as well as the role of Charlotte in Werther.

Karine Deshayes’s career has also extended into major international stages, including the Salzburg Festival (Die Zauberflöte under the baton of Riccardo Muti), the Teatro Real in Madrid, and the Liceu in Barcelona (the title role in Massenet’s Cendrillon). At the invitation of the New York Metropolitan Opera, she debuted in the role of Siebel before returning there to play Isolier in the Le Comte Ory, and more recently, Nicklausse in Les Contes d’Hoffmann directed by James Levine, where she drew particularly rave reviews from the New York music critiques. She followed this by performing in the role of Angelina in the Cenerentola at the San Francisco Opera, again to great success.

Subsequently, she has sung the role of Donna Elvira at the Opera of Paris for the first time, a role that she made own, as the public and the critics unanimously agreed. In concert, she beautifully played the role of Elisabetta in Donizetti’s Maria Stuarda at the Avignon Opera.

Karine Deshayes’s vast repertoire has allowed her to perform regularly in concert and recital under the direction of such conductors as Emmanuel Krivine, David Stern, Kurt Masur, Emmanuelle Haïm, Louis Langrée and Myung-Whun Chung, and with such artists as Philippe Cassard, Renaud Capuçon, Nicolas Angelich, L’Ensemble Contraste, the Quatuor Ebène, the Mahler Chamber Orchestra, and many more.

At the Victoires de la Musique Awards in 2016, Karine Deshayes was named Lyric Artist of the Year for the second time in her career. Her last recording, « Rossini », with the Ensemble Les Forces Majeures, has just been released (Label Aparté). ​

Future plans include the roles of Adalgisa (Norma) at the Teatro Real in Madrid, Charlotte (Werther) at the Tchaikowsky Concert Hall in Moscow, Rossini's Armida at the Montpellier Opera House, Gluck's Alceste at the Lyon Opera House, Romeo (I Capuleti e I Montecchi) at the Marseille Opera House and many concerts and recitals.
