Cristina Baggio

Cristina Baggio was among the soloists in the gala concert of Raina Kabaivanska's Sofia masterclass on 24 September 2009, an evening shared with Dorotea Doroteeva, Diana Vasileva, Darina Linkova and Kiril Sharbanov. An Italian soprano whose studies joined psychopedagogy to singing and vocal chamber music, she trained at the Vecchi-Tonelli Institute in Modena and the Conservatory of Vicenza, with further work abroad, and took distinctions at AsLiCo and the Toti Dal Monte Competition as well as the Armel Opera Festival's prize for best female performer in 2010. Her engagements have included La Fenice, the Teatro San Carlo in Naples, the Teatro Regio in Parma and the Sofia Opera, and she has taught in international masterclasses.
