Winner of the Victoria de los Ángeles Award
Following the artistic legacy of Victoria de los Ángeles, the Foundation that bears her name annually presents an award to the global singer, meaning one who can interpret opera, oratorio, and Lied with equal rigor. The winner of this award, which we present as part of the Tenor Viñas Competition at the Gran Teatre del Liceu, was mezzo-soprano Valerie Eickhoff. Her selection and performance of works, ranging from Lied to zarzuela and from opera to oratorio, led the jury to this decision. The German mezzo makes her debut at LIFE Victoria with a luxurious accompaniment: Harmut Höll, her regular collaborative pianist, who also works with Renée Fleming and René Pape, and previously with legends such as Hermann Prey and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau.
