Anna Netrebko: A Soprano Of Note(s)

Jill Pasternak had the unique opportunity to speak with soprano Anna Netrebko, one of the brightest stars on the operatic stage today. Ms. Netrebko caused a sensation with her beauty, poise, and stunning vocal ability in her debuts in both Salzburg and The Met in 2002.  With the world at her feet, she has maintained a reputation of excellence and an independence in both her handling of her career and her private life. Her family is vitally important to her and her decisions about her career have been carefully made. 

This interview highlighted her appearance in the Met Live HD performance of Manon last April.

Here's a recent article about Ms. Netrebko from The Wall Street Journal
