Awards,
International Opera Awards 2023 - The Shortlisted Recordings
We had the pleasure of speaking to Javier, Cyrille and Lisette about their nominated recordings (focusing on Donizetti's Italian operas, the evolution of the French ténor de grâce and French bel canto respectively) last year, so do check out our interviews with the artists if you missed them the first time around!
Full details of all nominees (including the contenders for Male and Female Singers of the Year, New Production, and the Readers' Award) can be viewed here; the winners will be announced in a ceremony at the Teatr Wielki in Warsaw on 9th November...
