The Bulgarian National Radio, "Arte Viva", Author: Daniela Benisheva – Gabriela Georgieva: My dream is to sing at "Covent Garden"


The stage fright is a sign that you are making a progress

For many years I have been fighting with myself and I didn’t want to sing Norma. This shared Gabriela Georgieva, one of the performers of Norma from Bellini’s opera of the same name in the spectacle of the Sofia Opera with director Hugo de Ana. With a smile she noted that this role is already her favourite and she defined it as the greatest challenge in the soprano repertoire and revealed that her dream was to sing it at the Royal Opera House in London.

Does she like to sing to herself the emblematic aria "Casta diva"? From here continues our conversation with the well-known Bulgarian singer, the first part of which we broadcasted yesterday in the programme "Rhythm of the Capital". And it was not by chance. Last night Gabriela Georgieva took part in the first of the three spectacles of "Norma" on the stage of the Sofia Opera.

The second one is tonight, when in the role of Norma will be Fiorenza Cedolins, and tomorrow at 16 h Norma will be Tsvetana Bandalovska. Conductor is maestro Francesco Rosa.
