About the artist Cecilia Bartoli

For more than two decades, Cecilia Bartoli has undeniably been one of the leading artists in the field of classical music. All over the world, her new operatic roles, her concert programs and recording projects are expected with great eagerness and curiosity. Thus, Cecilia Bartoli brings Classical Music close to the hearts of millions of people throughout the world. Apart from that, she is proud that through their popularity, her projects have caused a wide-spread re-evaluation and rediscovery of the neglected composers and forgotten repertoire which she puts up for discussion. Born in Rome on 4th June 1966, Cecilia Bartoli received her voice training at the Conservatorio di Santa Cecilia in the Italian capital, while at the same time being taught and coached by her parents, Silvana Bazzoni and Angelo Bartoli, both professional singers. She made her professional debut at age nine, and at 19 rocketed to fame in the wake of a star-making Italian television appearance opposite soprano Katia Ricciarelli and baritone Leo Nucci. A subsequent Parisian performance caught the attention of the famed conductor Daniel Barenboim, who became one of Bartoli's most vocal supporters. She has since worked with a host of other acclaimed conductors, including Claudio Abbado, Pierre Boulez, Riccardo Chailly, William Christie, Myung-Whun Chung, Charles Dutoit, Christopher Hogwood, James Levine, Zubin Mehta, Riccardo Muti, Sir Simon Rattle, Giuseppe Sinopol, Sir Georg Solti and Franz Welser-Möst amongst others. The exceptional amount of 6 million CDs sold, more than 200 weeks ranking in the international pop charts, numerous Golden Discs, 4 Grammys (USA), 7 Echos and a Bambi (Germany), two Classical Brit Awards (UK), the Victoire de la Musique (France) and many other prestigious awards reflect the immense success of her solo albums ‘Vivaldi’, ‘Gluck’, ‘Salieri’ and ‘Opera proibita’ and that she is firmly established as today's 'best selling classical artist'.
