Two shining stars of the world’s most prestigious opera houses – soprano Corinne Winters and tenor Pavel Černoch in arias, duets and scenes from operas by Slavic composers.

American soprano Corinne Winters has performed over thirty leading roles in major opera houses around the world. A significant part of her operatic career focuses on Slavic, specifically Czech repertoire. This season, she is set to make her debut at the Metropolitan Opera in New York, the Bavarian State Opera in Munich, and she will return to the Royal Opera House at Covent Garden and Teatro dell’Opera in Rome.

Pavel Černoch is considered one of the leading tenors of today. He regularly performs at major opera houses such as the Vienna State Opera, Paris National Opera, Royal Opera Covent Garden, Berlin and Munich State Opera. He is renowned for his versatility, and is particularly praised for his interpretation of the Czech and Slavic repertoire.
