Lucy Crowe

Born in 1978, soprano Lucy Crowe hails from Staffordshire in central England and received her vocal training at the Royal Academy of Music in London, which awarded her the honorary title of fellow. She has long been singing on the great international stages, making her debut at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden in London in 2009 and at the Metropolitan Opera in New York in 2012. Lucy Crowe's repertoire focuses on the operas of Purcell, Handel and Mozart (Susanna in The Marriage of Figaro, Pamina in Die Zauberflöte), but she also appears frequently as, for example, Gilda in Verdi's Rigoletto and Sophie in Richard Strauss's Rosenkavalier. The soprano celebrated particular success with the title role in the opera Das schlaue Füchslein by Leoš Janáček, which she also performed in a new recording conducted by Simon Rattle. In concert, Lucy Crowe has worked with internationally renowned conductors and orchestras, performing with both traditional orchestras and those of historically informed performance practice. In recent years she has regularly performed the solo parts in Ludwig van Beethoven's 9th Symphony and Missa solemnis and Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy's Second Symphony "Lobgesang" in concerts conducted by John Eliot Gardiner.
