About

This selection of French opera arias, which includes music by Massenet, Cherubini, Berlioz, Thomas, Bizet, and Saint-Saëns, is performed by the Canadian singer Marie-Nicole Lemieux, one of today’s most talented and versatile contraltos. Marie-Nicole has featured with great success on three of Naïve’s award-winning series of Vivaldi operas - Griselda, Orlando furioso, and La fida ninfa.

In 2000, Marie-Nicole Lemieux became the first Canadian to win the First Prize as well as the Special Prize for Lieder at the Queen Elisabeth International Music Competition in Belgium.

The programme chosen for this recording by Marie-Nicole Lemieux is dedicated to the finest arias from the French opera, recorded with one of the finest orchestras in this repertoire and featuring both popular and more specialised works.
