One of the world's most highly-acclaimed sopranos in the world, a Slovak singer Edita Gruberova, accompanied by her husband Friedrich Haider (pianoforte) performs May 16th at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia. The composers she selected for this Roman recital are Mozart, Brahms, Strauss and Dvorák.

Born in Bratislava, Edita Gruberova is highly acclaimed for her ability to sing high notes with great power, thanks to which she became a perfect Queen of the Night (in Mozart's "Magic Flute") in her early years. Her operatic debut was in 1968, as Rosina in The Barber of Seville, and her debut as Queen of the Night was in 1974. If you're fond of classics - don't miss it!
