Mirella Freni is one of the most remarkable soprano singers in the world of opera. In her 50-year career, Freni interpreted more than 40 roles and performed on the world’s largest stages. She sang in London’s Covent Garden, at the Met in New York, at the Glyndebourne and the Salzburg Festival.
This fascinating portrait shows Mirella Freni during a Master Class at the Centro Universale del Bel Canto (CUBeC) in Vignola, which is close to her hometown of Modena. We will see the Grande Dame of the opera working with young singing talents.
The Master Class builds the background story of the documentary. It points out Freni’s experience, her competence as a senior, and her dedication and heart for the talented musical offspring.
In 2010, the year of her 75th birthday and her 55th stage anniversary, Freni received the MIDEM Classical Award in the category ‘Lifetime Achievement.’
