Rapidly establishing herself as one of the most thrilling vocal talents to have emerged in recent years, Greek soprano Christina Poulitsi has drawn praise for her “crystal clear intonation” and “warm lyric colour”.

Christina’s 2017/18 season opened with her Royal Opera debut in London, performing as Queen of the Night under the baton of Julia Jones. Christina continues to perform this role with Opéra-Comique in Paris, on tour across Japan with Komische Oper, and Hamburg Staatsoper with Mo. Jean-Christophe Spinosi. In concert she will perform at the Théâtre des Champs Elysées with Orchestre de Chambre de Paris conducted by Yvan Cassar, in an all-Mozart programme, and will join Mo. Gianandrea Noseda on a tour throughout Spain with Orquestra de Cadaqués, performing Mozart’s Requiem.

Christina was named Best New Artist by the Union of Greek Critics of Drama and Music for her performance as Gilda in Rigoletto at the Greek National Opera in 2014. In the same year, she was a finalist in Placido Domingo’s “Operalia” competition, and had previously won 1st Prize at the International “Nico Dostal” Competition in Vienna. Born in Athens, Christina studied at the Berlin University of Arts with soprano KS Dagmar Schellenberger and Brigitte Eisenfeld, as a scholar of the “Maria Callas” foundation.
