From the most beloved sacred works for religious ceremonies to elegant, romantic, or quirky selections from the genres of opera, classical music, musical theater, jazz, or popular music for civil ceremonies or other events, I will work closely with you to choose musical selections that will be meaningful to you and create the perfect atmosphere for your event.
I collaborate regularly with excellent professional harpists, string players, pianists, and organists from the Milan/Como/Ticino area and, in the case of church weddings or other religious events, will happily collaborate with the principal organist or music director of the church or other place of worship.
Possible programs:
-sacred music during religious ceremonies
-classical, opera, Broadway, folk, or jazz selections for non-religious ceremonies
-romantic programs of opera and operetta for cocktail hours, receptions, gala events
-atmospheric programs of jazz standards, Broadway favorites, cabaret for cocktail hours, receptions, dinners
-opera/chamber music recitals

As an opera singer I have performed in major venues throughout Europe, from the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées and the Royal Opera of Versailles to the Greek National Opera and the Theater an der Wien, and recorded principal roles on more than a dozen world-premiere recordings of French operas and concert works. I have likewise performed for events and ceremonies throughout northern Italy, including in such 5-star venues as Lake Como's Villa d'Este. I am happy to provide a complete biography upon request.
