ELENA LO FORTE Elena Lo Forte
The soprano Elena Lo Forte studied violin before starting
voice training, winning various international competitions, including the 'Mattia
Battistini', the 'Mario Del Monaco' and the 'Umberto Giordano'. Following her debut
as Santuzza in Mascagni's Cavalleria rusticana in various Italian opera
houses, she went on to sing, among other roles, Nedda in Leoncavallo's Pagliacci
and the title role in Puccini's Tosca in Rome, Giorgetta in Puccini's
Il tabarro in Sassari, the solo voice in a world premiere of a work by
Roberto De Simone at San Carlo in Naples and La Scala in Milan, Desdemona in
Verdi's Otello on tour in the United States and later in various Italian
houses, including the Teatro Massimo in Palermo. Over the years she also
studied drama and has often worked in theatre, television and cinema both as a
singer and an actress, with directors such as Francis Ford Coppola, Mario
Monicelli and Gigi Proietti. She has a large repertoire which includes the
major Puccini heroines and is now especially oriented towards Verdi
lirico-spinto roles such as Lady Macbeth in Macbeth, Amelia in Un
ballo in maschera and the title role in Aida.
