Isabel Bayrakdarian (official bio)
Isabel Bayrakdarian burst onto the international opera scene after winning first prize in the 2000 Operalia competition founded by Plácido Domingo. Since then she has performed in many of the world's major opera houses and concert halls. She is admired as much for her stunning stage presence as for her exceptional musicality, and she has followed a unique career path completely her own.
In the 2008-2009 season Ms. Bayrakdarian tours with the Manitoba Chamber Orchestra conducted by Anne Manson performing the works of Armenian composer Gomidas Vartabed. The Remembrance Concert Tour , dedicated to victims of all genocide, will be performed with San Francisco Performances, the Philharmonic Society of Orange County, the Vancouver Symphony, at Roy Thomson Hall, with the Boston Celebrity Series, and in a return to Carnegie Halls Zankel Hall. Operatic engagements include debuts at the Teatro del Liceu in the title role of Lincoronazione di Poppea and with Opéra Français de New York performing the title role of Kurt Weills Marie Galante, as well as a return to the Metropolitan Opera as Zerlina in Don Giovanni. Ms. Bayrakdarian also appears in recital with her husband, pianist Serouj Kradjian, in Duluth, Minnesota, Charlottesville, Virginia, and Calgary, Alberta.
Highlights of Ms. Bayrakdarians recent seasons have included performances as Pamina (Die Zauberflöte) at the Metropolitan Opera, Zerlina at the Salzburg Festivals celebration of Mozarts birthday, debuting the role of Mélisande in Pélleas et Mélisande at the Canadian Opera Company, singing title role in The Cunning Little Vixen at the Saito Kinen Festival under the baton of Seiji Ozawa, Le nozze di Figaro at Covent Garden and the Houston Grand Opera and her role debut as Blanche in Robert Carsens production of Poulencs Dialogues of the Carmelites at the Lyric Opera of Chicago. She also participated in the world-premiere of Jake Heggie and Gene Sheers one-act opera To Hell and Back with Broadway legend Patti LuPone and San Franciscos Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra.
Isabel Bayrakdarian sings on the Grammy® award-winning soundtrack of the blockbuster film The Lord of The Rings: The Two Towers, and her voice can also be heard in the multiple award-winning Canadian film Ararat. Ms. Bayrakdarian has been honored with four Juno awards, Canadas highest recording prize, most recently for her CD Mozart arie & duetti with fellow Canadians Russell Braun and Michael Schade. She is the subject of a CBC-TV film entitled A Long Journey Home that documents her first trip to Armenia; on another trip there recently she recorded a disc of songs by the countrys national composer, Gomidas Vartabed (1869-1935), with her husband and the Armenian Philharmonic Orchestra which is available on the Nonesuch label. Expanding her vast discography, Ms. Bayrkdarian was a guest soloist with the Canadian band Delerium on their 2007 Grammy® nominated dance remix Angelicus.
Ms. Bayrakdarian has received many grants and other awards in addition to the First Prize in the Operalia: four Juno awards, the Queen Elizabeth II Golden Jubilee Medal, the 2005 Virginia Parker Prize from the Canada Council for the Arts, the Leonie Rysanek Award from the George London Foundation, and a Metropolitan Opera National Council Award in 1997.
Born in Lebanon of proud Armenian heritage and now a citizen of Canada, Ms. Bayrakdarian moved with her family to Toronto as a teenager. Her earliest singing experience was at church, which remains along with her family the central focus of her life. She holds an honors degree in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Toronto.
Perfect voice...Greetings from Turkey. 🇹🇷🇦🇲
Totally agree. She is beautiful,, in every way. Greetings from Western Australia - raising my glass of wine to all around the world who see the beauty of this.
I’ve been a big fan of hers for years! Amazing to see her connect with her roots. Love from a fellow Canadian ❤
'Isabelle Bayrakdarian a toutes les qualités. L'intelligence de l'interpétation, la sensibilité, et la technique ! et en plus, sa sensibilité est celle que je comprends la mieux, la sensibilité arménienne.
Un grand bravo à sa mère qui a réussi l'éducation de sa fille ...

I truly believe that beauty can harbour beauty, this is raw proof. I know that might not make any sense but if you think about it, it does in a strange way.

jolie voix pour cette mélodie connue de Dvorak

Michael Ward Oh, bess your heart dear, Armenia is one of the safest countries in the World.
Not really! We go to Armenia often, it’s amazing!! Culture, beauty, thousands of years’ history and much much more!!
super
que lastima que no existan mas videos de isabel interpretando magnificas obras de puccini entre otras
wow She sound soo Good ..... sing like Frederica von Stade
very very nice.. is this available somewhere without the overdubbed commentary ?
thanks for putting this up
Interview in the middle of a performance? No. What were they thinking?
beautiful OVSANNA ATTARIAN LATTER.
Perhaps Hildegard, it is the finest version of this glorious song...but to put interviews "over" the recording...is hard to understand ?
It seem though, that the recording comes from a documentary film about the singer...but it´s a pity !
Madame Isabel is a wonderful singer !!
Bass clarinet at 0:06
Dude, I feel your pain.
i found out that this song is available on the Long Journey Home DVD. does anyone know if the overdubbed commentary is also done on the DVD
One of the best sopranos today. Not like the overrated Americans.
Give me Renee Fleming any time. She owns this aria.
No she doesn’t. Fleming screams butt off.
She is the ONLY one who can TRULY sing Gorecki III she is a RARE gift from God.
Isabel's voice is amazing and profound and it was not likely that she ever intended for her publicist, the editor, or whomever is responsible to have done this. Your comments are more annoying, and you probably drive a Chevrolet anyway you nucklehead.
Mr. Fpam: You fail to see the irony of your own comment. You have just made a subjective comparison yourself by maintaining that Lucia Popp owns this aria. Having preferences in opera singers is NEVER inappropriate. As a regular Met goer, you ought to hear the opinions of people at intermission time.
They took too big a risk to place those flowers near her...my goodness
@Ericarose0321 lucky you both
yes you field in you bon
That interview cuts in like a overly strong tv station. Ruins the dynamics of her performance. Stupid editing!
If anyone "owns" this aria it is Lucia Popp, but there are many fine versions (including this one) and such subjective comparisons are irrelevant and inappropriate here.
Dear Azeri's this is Culture, not the crap at eurovision that you covet so much. and spent a $BILLION to host.
QUIZÁ la mejor versión de Rusalka .
Desafortunadamente interrumpida por dos paréntesis innecesarios.
Agree totally with Mr. Appleton; the interjection of personal comments into the middle of this exquisite aria, not once, but twice, totally inappropriate and jarring.
Whether publicist or singer it is gross and totally narcissistic to interrupt an aria and interject personal comments. You might as well throw in a Chevrolet ad. Her chatter destroys her music.
Roger Appleton What you talking about ?! Do you know the meaning of the Word narcissisme ?!
You are not narcissique ?! But i am because i have the tousands reason and she has too much
ta čeština....
Její čeština je dobrá, samozřejmě až na to naše Ř.
Její čeština je pěkná. Krásně jí jde rozumět, což je hlavní 🙃.
*_She was BORN IN LEBANON, so in MY naked eyes, she's LEBANESE_*
If she was born on china would that make her Chinese?. Armenians are an ethnic minority in most middle eastern counties.
@@neobogard If a person born in Canada is Canadian, then a person born in China is Chinese
@@2BigBeautifulBrownEyes I think she would disagree. Minorities keep their identity intact for a reason. I think an Armenian in Lebanon would get very upset if you claimed they were Lebanese and not Armenian purely because they were born there.
@@neobogard Of course they'd be very upset. From what I've seen FOR YEARS, Armenians are generally overly sensitive, overly nationalistic, racist, unforgiving, and overly emotional
@@2BigBeautifulBrownEyes How could Armenians be racist when they're not white?.
