The Bulgarian-born mezzo-soprano Vesselina Kasarova fairly quickly became a crowd favorite early in her professional career at the Zurich Opera House, reaching international stardom soon after with her Salzburg Festival debut in 1991. During the subsequent quarter-century, she has been heard on the great stages of the world's finest opera houses, singing a range of roles in operas by Mozart, Rossini, Massenet, Berlioz, Donizetti, Verdi, and more. A past ECHO Klassik award recipient, her recordings, including several for the RCA Victor Red Seal label, have been critically-acclaimed and popular with opera fans and admirers of Ms. Kasarova. For Genuin, she has recorded a new album of Russian Arias with the conductor Pavel Baleff and the Philharmonie Baden-Baden. It's repertoire is one of discovery, or re-discovery, with names such as Tchaikovsky, Borodin, Mussorgsky, Glinka and Rimsky-Korsakov denoting the high quality of the music to be heard sung by this world-class singer.
