Anna Netrebko, a soprano whose name has become synonymous with the pinnacle of operatic excellence, has firmly established herself as one of the foremost voices in classical music today. Born in Krasnodar, Russia, in 1971, Netrebko rose from modest beginnings to achieve global recognition, making her professional debut in 1994 at the Mariinsky Theatre as Susanna in "Le Nozze di Figaro." Her career swiftly ascended, leading to performances on some of the world's grandest stages, including the Metropolitan Opera, the Royal Opera House, and the Vienna State Opera. Known for her compelling performances and a voice that combines richness with precision, Netrebko has tackled a broad repertoire ranging from bel canto to Russian operas and Verdi.

Netrebko's recent releases, such as "10 Шагов," "Amata dalle tenebre," and her renditions from Puccini's "Madama Butterfly" and Verdi's "Aida," showcase her versatility and deep emotional connection with her material. Her album "Romanza," a collaboration with tenor Yusif Eyvazov (her husband), featured an eclectic mix of romantic pieces, further highlighting her ability to engage with a wide range of music styles. Throughout her career, Anna Netrebko has received numerous accolades, including the prestigious Herbert von Karajan Music Prize and being named a People's Artist of Russia, affirming her status as a luminary in the classical music world whose influence extends well beyond the opera house.
