Description:

Debut album by a young, talented American soprano with a heart of her ownThis is the debut album by Nadine Sierra, an up-and-coming American soprano who has signed an exclusive contract with Deutsche Grammophon. It opens up the rich diversity of American opera and song, conveying an enduring message of inner strength and hope. The album not only showcases Sierra's captivating singing at the Metropolitan Opera, but also reflects on America's history as a place of refuge for all people. In addition to Leonard Bernstein, the album features songs by immigrants Stravinsky, Osvaldo Golijov, and Aitor Villa-Lobos in honor of Sierra's Portuguese roots. Dedicating her rich voice generously across a wide range of genres from Brazilian music to American opera and song, Sierra reminds us that all music, all people, can "have a place" in the U.S. Released in August 2018 to coincide with the 100th anniversary of Bernstein's birth, this is the first time Sierra has performed in the United States.Nadine Sierra was born in Florida, her mother is Portuguese, and she lives in New York City on the same street where Leonard Bernstein lived.
