Although the Falcon soprano, a rare vocal type, is well known today, its original model is much less so. A contemporary of Pauline Viardot and La Malibran, Cornélie Falcon was one of the stars of fine French belcanto. An exceptional singer, her generous and powerful low register, capable of reaching impressive heights, gave her both a meteoric rise and a tragic destiny.

Polish soprano Aleksandra Kurzak and the Morphing Orchestra embrace her repertoire and her history, taking up the milestones of her triumph, from Rossini’s roles of Donna Anna and La Comtesse (Le Comte Ory) to the creations of Halévy (La Juive), Meyerbeer (Les Huguenots), Spontini (La Vestale) and Niedermeyer (Stradella). 

In this striking embodiment, Kurzak shines the spotlight on one of the most sensational artisans of French opera, combining virtuosity and beauty of line with unrivalled expressive and dramatic power.
