MARIA KEOHANE

Swedish soprano Maria Keohane covers a wide range of music, from the baroque to contemporary compositions including chamber music, opera and oratorios.

She has performed in Peri’s Euridice (as Proserpino and L’Altra Ninfa) and in Monteverdi’s Il Ritorno d’Ulisse in Patria (as Melanto) at the Drottningholm Royal Court Theatre in Stockholm. She has also sung the part of Salome in Stradella’s oratorio San Giovanni Battista as well as the title rôle in Marais’ Alcione. Ms Keohane specializes in adapting her stage appearance to baroque practices.

Maria Keohane is often engaged as an oratorio soloist and has performed with the Malmö Symphony Orchestra and with the Drottningholm Baroque Ensemble.

She also takes a keen interest in chamber music and appears regularly with the Gothenburg Bach Ensemble.

Outside Sweden Maria Keohane has performed in Italy, with Jakob Lindberg and in France and the Ukraine, with the trumpeter Niklas Eklund. With Eklund she also made a six-week tour of the USA, performing at various universities and conservatories.

For Naxos, Ms Keohane contributed to the recording with Niklas Eklund and the Wasa Baroque Ensemble of The Art of Baroque Trumpet Vol 5, singing rare ensemble pieces by Galuppi, Ziani and Vivaldi.
