World famous opera diva Raina Kabaivanska announced the launching of a master class in Sofia.
More than 56 talents from Bulgaria, Macedonia, Georgia, Ukraine, Great Britain, France, Italy and Argentina have declared their willingness to join Kabaivanska's class.
The grandiose performer organized for the first time a master class in the New Bulgarian University in 2001, while in 2002 she formed a special fund allotting scholarships for talented singers. So far 7 young Bulgarians have received scholarships.
Kabaivanska was born in the coastal town of Burgas and completed her vocal and piano studies at the Conservatory in Sofia. In 1958 she moved to Italy and in 1861 started a brilliant career with her debut at La Scala. Since then has sung in famous theatres worldwide: Paris, Venice, Naples, Moscow, San Francisco, Philadelphia, New York, Salzburg, Munich, Hamburg, Budapest, Sofia.
Her long career has brought her many awards: the Premio Bellini (1965) for her interpretation of Beatrice di Tenda, the Viotti d'oro (1970), the Premio Puccini (1978), the Premio Illica (1979), Premio Monteverdi (1980) and the Premio Lorenzo il Magnifico from the Medici Academy for the Arts in Florence (1990). She is renowned for her interpretations of Tosca, Manon, Francesca da Rimini and Madame Butterfly, which has led her to be named The Heroine of Melodramma.
