Corinna Ruba is a Berlin based lyric coloratura soprano who studied in Munich, Salzburg and Rome among other places. She has participated in many Opera festivals and master classes all over Europe, and has sung the roles of Pamina and Queen of the Night in Mozart’s Magic flute, Tosca in Puccini’s Tosca, and many other operas ranging from Baroque to Contemporary. She is equally at home singing lieder and uses an unusual approach to popularize opera and art song.
Soprano Corinna Ruba sends us a second installment of a recording specially made for us in Zurich. This selection includes songs in Russian, Italian, Norwegian and German.
Ne poy krasavitsa (Sing not, my beloved) is from Rachmaninoff’s 6 songs Op. 4 with words by Alexander Pushkin. Ave Maria is the aria of Desdemona from Verdi’s Otello. Solveig’s song is from Grieg’s incidental music to Henrik Ibsen’s play, Peer Gynt. The 3rd song from Richard Strauss’ famous 4 Last songs ends this recital.
