Nadezhda Pavlova stars as the Tsar’s chosen one

On 14 March, the role of Marfa in the opera The Tsar's Bride by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov will be performed by the soloist of Perm Opera and Ballet Theatre Nadezhda Pavlova.

Nadezhda Pavlova became familiar to the fans of the Bolshoi Theatre of Belarus by getting two awards at the 2nd Minsk International Singing Competition: the Perm Opera prima took home the grand prize and audience award of the competition.

Music reviewers and critics unanimously called Nadezhda Pavlova the ‘Perm sensation’. After the premiere of Verdi's La traviata staged by Robert Wilson and Theodor Currentzis, she was dubbed the ‘supernova’ of Russian opera. Her Violetta is claimed to be one of a kind in the world of opera today by opera critics.

A graduate of the Petrozavodsk State Glazunov Conservatoire, Nadezhda Pavlova started her singing career in the company of the Musical Theatre of the Republic of Karelia (Petrozavodsk). In 2011, she finished the postgraduate course of the Petrozavodsk State Glazunov Conservatoire under the Honoured Artist of the Republic of Karelia Valery Dvornikov. In 2012, she made her début on the stage of Perm Opera and Ballet theatre, performing the part of Marfa in The Tsar's Bride by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. In January 2013, she sang Violetta in La traviata by Giuseppe Verdi at the Latvian National Opera at the invitation of its director Andrejs Žagars.

Nadezhda Pavlova is the winner of numerous international competitions, a two time winner of the Highest Theatre Award of the Republic of Karelia «Onega Mask» for the performance of Rita in the eponymous opera by Gaetano Donizetti (2007), Galatea in the opera The Beautiful Galatea by Franz von Suppé (2008). She is the winner of the Nemtin Prize of the city of Perm in the sphere of culture and arts (2015).

The connoisseurs and fans of the opera singer started talking about her a few years ago, after her brilliant performance of Donna Anna in Don Giovanni by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart under the baton of Teodor Currentzis. No lesser enthusiasm was aroused after her performance of Olympia in The Tales of Hoffmann by Jacques Offenbach. In the current theatrical season, Nadezhda Pavlova made a lasting impression on her fans at home with a performance of her "signature role" Violetta from Verdi's La traviata.

On 14 March, The Tsar's Bride will feature Vladimir Petrov (Gryaznoy), Oksana Volkova (Lyubasha), Alexander Keda (Sobakin), Oleg Melnikov (Malyuta), Alexander Mikhnyuk (Lykov), Alexander Zhukov (Bomelius), Inna Rusinovskaya (Saburova), Marina Moroz (Dunyasha). Nikolai Koliadko conducts.
