Lyubov Petrova

Step into a world of vocal brilliance and emotional depth with Lyubov Petrova—hailed as a “soprano of ravishing, changeable beauty, blazing high notes and magnetic stage presence” (Opera News).

Internationally acclaimed soprano Lyubov Petrova joins pianist Eugine Sirotkin for an afternoon of luminous song spanning the refined elegance of France and the passionate lyricism of Russia.

The program features Reynaldo Hahn’s exquisite Chansons grises, Ravel’s vibrant Cinq mélodies populaires grecques, and beloved works by Debussy and Fauré—music of shimmering color, intimacy, and poetic nuance. Selections by Tchaikovsky, Rimsky-Korsakov, and Rachmaninoff complete the concert, culminating in the electrifying Spring Waters, a thrilling showcase of vocal brilliance and expressive power.

A radiant force on the world’s greatest stages—from the Metropolitan Opera to the Bolshoi Theater, Teatro Real, and beyond—Lyubov Petrova has dazzled audiences in opera houses, concert halls, and festivals around the globe.

Lyubov Petrova’s prodigious artistry extends beyond the live stage. Her celebrated recordings include Tchaikovsky & Rachmaninov Songs, highly praised for her “elegant vocalisation… a cleanly produced voice with a wonderful legato, fine instincts for expressive phrase shaping and ample tone for shading the music that never grows unwieldy. Petrova’s soft singing is a marvel.” (Gramophone Magazine)

One of opera’s most captivating stars, Lyubov Petrova made a scintillating turn on the silver screen as the Queen of the Night in the film The Magic Flute, a cinematic reimagining of Mozart’s masterpiece, directed by Kenneth Branagh.

This concert will have a 20-miunte intermission.
