    Edwige Perfetti Biography Edwige Perfetti was admitted at the age of nine to l'Ecole de la Maîtrise de la R.T.F. (Paris). During the next ten years, she received a comprehensive education in music (solfège, harmony, music history, singing, etc.) to which was added each evening, concerts, and recordings with famous soloists, conductors, and orchestras. Also, she made numerous trips in France, and to Bulgaria, Israel, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Austria, Italy... From age 16 to 19, she discovered the world of "Show-Biz" with the group, the Djinns, organized for radio and sponsored by Gilbert Becaud. With that ensemble, she participated in many more recordings, together with long summer tours (35 cities each month). At age 19, her voice having gained power and richness, Edwige Perfetti chose to leave the Djinns in order to audition at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique in Paris, where she was admitted immediately. While there, she was awarded the Prix de Chant, Art Lyrique, Opérette, the Médaille de solfège, and participated in a study tour to East Germany with the C.N.S.M. of Paris. She maintained an interest in contemporary music, and the students in the composition classes of Olivier Messiaen, J. Rivier, and Tony Aubin regularly asked her to perform their compositions for their final examinations at the end of the year. Additional honors gained: 1er Prix at the Concours International de la Mélodie Française, in Paris. Médaille de Bronze at the Concours International de Chant (section for young soloists) organized in Paris by la Guilde du Chant. Diplôme at the Concours International de Chant de Toulouse (only French finalist) Parallel to her studies at C.N.S.M., Edwige Perfetti made her debut at the Théâtre de l'Odeon in Paris in la Compagnie Jean-Louis Barrault-Madeleine Renault. She was a "lady's maid" in La Vie Parisienne (Offenbach) during all the season '65-'66. Noted by the orchestra conductor, André Girard, she was engaged the following season at the Théâtre Sarah-Bernhardt in Paris for a premier role in Marat-Sade (about the Marquis de Sade), a musical by Jean Prodromides. Edwige Perfetti had the only top feminine role sung with actors Jean Servais, Michel Vitold, Pierre Vernier, Françoise Brion... During that same season, when she was on stage one out of every two nights and also studying at C.N.S.M., she took the television role of Gertrude in Louise (G. Charpentier), and performed Le Duo de la Jaloisie from the Three-Penney Opera (Kurt Weil). Since that time, Edwige Perfetti has been heard on the international stage (theater, concerts, recitals) in a vast classic and contemporary repertoire. When she joined l'Opéra de Paris as an Artiste du Choeur (1974-1981), Rolf Lieberman noted her voice during her entrance audition. Because of that, he gave her two appearances at l'Opéra de Paris in the role of Ortlinde in Die Walkyrie (Wagner), and, at La Palais des Congrès, la Voix Céleste, in La Damnation de Faust (Berlioz). Also, she sang this role in Washington's Kennedy Center during a tour on the U.S. with the choir and orchestra of l'Opéra de Paris under the direction of Seiji Ozawa. In July, 2003, Edwige Perfetti was invited by the American Band College, Ashland, Oregon (Max McKee, Director) to perform "ABC Overture," composed and directed by Claude Pichaureau. Since 1987, in the framework of her pedagogical activities, Edwige Perfetti has directed numerous performances with her students, satisfying her taste for staging and dance, in short, the concept and complete realization of each performance. Loving, above all, to exploit to the maximum all vocal, musical, and theatrical possibilities, Edwige Perfetti has defined herself as an atypical artist, rich in numerous professional experiences, who wishes to continue to be of service to the public. In that spirit, and to honor her father and Corsica, the land of her birth, she has made an album of Corsican melodies, Meludiosu Corsica, available from CDbaby, iTunes, etc. (Other recording information from Corellia, Erato, EMI...) Admise dés l'âge de 9 ans à l'Ecole de la Maîtrise de la R.T.F.

De 16 à 19 ans, elle découvre le monde du « Show-Biz » avec le groupe des « DJINNS » constitué par la Radio et parrainé par Gilbert BECAUD. Avec cet ensemble elle participe encore à plusieurs enregistrements ainsi qu'à de longues tournées d'été à raison de 35 villes par mois. A 19 ans, sa voix ayant pris beaucoup d'ampleur, Edwige PERFETTI choisit de quitter les « DJINNS » pour se présenter au Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris où elle est admise au premier tour. On lui attribue des Prix de Chant, Art Lyrique, Opérette et Médaille de solfège, et participe à un voyage d'études en Allemagne de l'Est avec le C.N.S.M. de Paris.

Elle est une soubrette dans « La Vie Parisienne » (Offenbach) durant toute la saison 65-66. Remarquée par le chef d'orchestre André GIRARD, elle est engagée la saison suivante au Théâtre SARAH-BERNARDT à Paris pour un premier rôle dans « Marat-Sade » (d'après le Marquis de Sade) : une création musicale signée Jean PRODROMIDES. Edwige PERFETTI est le seul premier rôle féminin chanté aux côtés des comédiens Jean SERVAIS, Michel VITOLD, Pierre VERNIER, Françoise BRION... Durant cette même saison où elle est sur scène un soir sur deux, et tout en poursuivant ses études au C.N.S.M., elle tourne pour la télévision le rôle de Gertrude dans « Louise » (G. CHARPENTIER) et un extrait de l'Opéra de quatr ' sous » (Kurt WEIL) : Le Duo de la Jalousie.

    And the Greatest Is Love
    One thing cherished is the gift of relationships, vulnerable and honest, with family and friends. In my experience, the common language of music nourishes these relationships. The passion of certain words in combination with a musical texture, given expression through a human voice, stirs our souls and touches our senses, drawing us together in ways that cannot be achieved by words alone. The intimact of music brings to mind memories and draws us to the honesty of love that we long for. It makes us laugh and it makes us cry. On one occasion, after a recital that my daughter and I had given, she was amazed at the tears of our listeners as we sang. It is the power of the human voice to touch us deeply that both surprises me and gives me delight. It is why I sing, hoping to create a space whereby we come to touch the sacred, our spirituality, and our common humanity. It is the reason for my title, 'and the greatest is love ...', and the songs selected. This gift of singing has drawn me to places of great joy and overwhelming loneliness, and my tears have come at unexpected moments. The haunting role of Peter Grimes that I sang under the direction of Maestro Seiji Ozawa at the Tanglewood Summer Music Festival reminded me of the lonely and desperate moments that come our way. While singing at the Stefaniensaal in Graz, Austria to the music of Weber's 'Durch die Walder), the extravagant ornamentation of the moment reminded me of the incredible heights of beauty to which we yearn. Singing out the artistry of Bellini at a Toronto 'Opera in Concet' venue, our capacity for woundrous and extreme joy was touched. I am profoundly thankful for the gift and development of my voice that has given me these musical opportunities. Sometimes, the music is best when I am singing in someone's home, humming to myself on a morning walk, or singing to (and sometimes with) the loons at the family cottage. Such is the gift of the instrument that always travels with me. I hope that it's journey to you, within this music, fills you with the same delight.

    The Cunning Little Vixen
    Leoš Janáček ist nicht nur einer der bedeutendsten tschechischen Komponisten, sondern darüber hinaus einer der eigenständigsten Opernkomponisten des 20. Jahrhunderts, ohne den sich die Entwicklung der zeitgenössischen Musik nicht vorstellen ließe. Besonders seine neun Bühnenwerke haben Leben und Brauchtum, aber auch die Volksmelodien und die musikalische Sprache seiner Heimat hinein in die Welt getragen. Das Libretto zum “Schlauen Füchslein” nach Rudolf Tešnohlídeks gleichnamiger Geschichte schrieb Leoš Janáček selbst. Die Uraufführung am 6. November 1924 am Nationaltheater Brünn wurde ein großer künstlerischer Erfolg, der internationale Durchbruch erfolgte mit der legendären Inszenierung 1956 an der Komischen Oper Berlin. Sowohl in dieser als auch der vorliegenden Inszenierung werden die charakterlichen Parallelen zwischen Mensch und Tier mit ein und derselben Person dargestellt.Im Jahr 2009 inszeniert Laurent Pelly “Das schlaue Füchslein” mit der musikalischen Leitung von Seiji Ozawa im Florenzer Teatro del Maggio Musicale. Die unglaubliche Besetzung von 13 Solisten wird von der armenisch-kanadischen Sopranistin Isabel Bayrakdarian als sinnliches Füchslein und dem Amerikaner Quinn Kelsey in der Rolle des furchtlosen Försters angeführt. Mit Begeisterung wurde diese Inszenierung, die die fantastische Welt der Tiere auf die Bühne bringt, von Publikum und Presse aufgenommen. Janáčeks Oper ist ein Meisterwerk für alle und ein Erlebnis für Jung und Alt!
