From the mezzo-soprano Marina Viotti:
I’m so happy to announce my debut at the @salzburgerfestspiele this summer, with the part of Jocasta in Oedipus Rex (Stravinsky), under the lead of my favorite conductor @lorenzoviotti, together with the @viennaphilharmonic and @wienersingverein !!! I started my operatic journey as a singer in the choir of the Singverein in Vienna 13 years ago and have so many incredible memories with them!
