Elizabeth Blancke-Biggs is recognized as one of the most exciting lirico-spinto sopranos on the international scene today. Critics worldwide have praised her virtuosic bel canto technique, the beauty and color of her voice, her pyrotechnic coloratura, and her unerring theatricality. Hailed as one of the best young Verdi singers by Placido Domingo, she has had international successes as Violetta in Verdi’s La Traviata at New York’s Metropolitan Opera, Donizetti’s Maria Stuarda at Torino’s Teatro Regio, Abigaille in Verdi’s Nabucco at Santiago Chile’s Teatro Municipal, Minnie in La Fanciulla del West and Tosca at Florida Grand Opera, Tosca and Mimì in La Bohème at New York City Opera, and Bellini’s Norma and Fanciulla at London’s Opera Holland Park. She was recently featured in a new production of Aida at Opera Omaha.
