Ilaria Ribezzi

Ilaria Ribezzi began her piano studies at a very young age and followed the study of singing with mezzo-soprano Bianca Maria Casoni. She continued her training and further education at the Teatro alla Scala Choir Academy in Milan, Osimo Art Academy and in 2015 Chigiana Academy in Siena. The meeting in 2016 with her current teacher Fernando Cordeiro Opa was important. She won the Rose Ponselle Music Execution Competition and received the young prize at the International Sacred Music Competition in Rome. As a solo mezzo-soprano, she elegantly tackled different repertoires ranging from ancient music (Vivaldi, Händel, Haydn, Pergolesi, Mozart) to romantic and contemporary music (Saint-Säens, Liszt), especially in chamber and symphonic repertoire, appearing on several important concert halls
