Марина де Лизо

Two repertoires anchor Marina de Liso's career: the Baroque, with its trouser roles and sorceresses, and Rossini, whose comic mezzo parts she has sung in Italian theatres — Rosina, Angelina in La Cenerentola, Isabella in L'italiana in Algeri. Mozart follows close behind, Cherubino and Dorabella, and her concert work reaches forward into Verdi and the twentieth century. Trained in Italy and a participant in European festivals, she sang in Il barbiere di Siviglia at the National Palace of Culture in Sofia in March 2017. She graduated from the Conservatory of Rovigo and continued her studies in Milan with Claudine Ansermet, focusing on Renaissance and Baroque singing.
