Metropolitan Opera debut as Amina in La Sonnambula
Praised by Opera News for her “impassioned singing”, Polish-American coloratura soprano Alexandra Nowakowski made her Metropolitan Opera debut as Amina in Rolando Villazón’s production of La Sonnambula for the 25/26 season. She makes her role debut as Violetta in La Traviata with the Buxton International Festival, and early in the season sang Gilda in Rigoletto with Ópera de Oviedo. She joined Rubén Fernández Aguirre in recital at the Semana Religiosa de Cuenca, and Josep Buforn at La Casa Elizalde in Barcelona. She also joined the Warszawska Opera Kameralna as Donna Elvira in a concert version of Don Giovanni. In between contracts, Alexandra dedicates her time to her personal project The Opera Kitchen, a private dinner experience bringing opera to new audiences.
