FEMME FRAGILE, FEMME FATALE
„Evmorfia Metaxaki is a great title interpreter in Strauss‘ SALOME“

ORPHEUS, 01/2023

Greek soprano Evmorfia Metaxaki critically acclaimed for her performance as the title role in Strauss ´Salome, celebrates her success as an opera singer not only because of her powerful, silver sparkling voice, confident in all registers, but also for her versatility with which she slips into every role. For her portrayal of Salome, she was named VOICE OF THE YEAR 2022 by Opernratgeber in Germany and BEST VOCAL PERFORMER by Der Opernfreund for having fulfilled Strauss ´demand for a 16-year-old princess with Isolde´s voice.

Her 2023/24 season begins with Tatyana in Tchaikovsky´s Eugene Onegin with the Theater Lübeck. She continues singing leading roles, including Marguerite in Gounod´s Faust, Contessa Almaviva in Mozart´s masterpiece Le nozze di Figaro and Mimi in Puccini ´s La Bohème. As a champion of an unusually wide range of repertoire, Evmorfia will perform songs by Edward Grieg with the Philharmonisches Orchester Lübeck under Hendrik Vestmann.
