Eleonora Buratto
Eleonora Buratto has emerged onto the international opera stage as “the most precious and complete soprano that the Italian school has produced in recent years” (Il Foglio, 2022).
Her interpretations are seen as a point of reference in a repertoire that ranges from Belcanto to Puccini. Her career progression has been gradual but unstoppable, from her start as Creusa in Demofoonte conducted by Riccardo Muti, to her leading roles in recent years in the most prestigious theatres worldwide.
Highlights over the past two seasons include the 2024 New Year Concert at La Fenice, Amelia in Simon Boccanegra at Teatro alla Scala, her debut as Tosca at the Bayerische Staatsoper, Madama Butterfly at the Opéra Bastille, a concert performance of Tosca for the season opening at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia (recorded for Deutsche Grammophon) and Amelia in Simon Boccanegra for the season opening at the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma. Her 2025 begins as Mimì at the Metropolitan Opera and continues with the Verdi Requiem with the Staatskapelle Dresden conducted by Daniele Gatti, a staged production of Madama Butterfly at the Baden-Baden Easter Festival followed by a concert performance at the Philharmonie Berlin under Kirill Petrenko and Elisabetta (role debut) in Roberto Devereux at the Palau de Les Arts, completing the trilogy of “Tudor Queens” she debuted there, Tosca at the Puccini Festival, the Verdi Requiem conducted by Gianandrea Noseda at the Gstaad Festival Tent and Alice in Falstaff at the Semperoper Dresden, again under Daniele Gatti.
Her debut solo album, Indomita (Pentatone), was released in April 2025.
She is a Cavaliere della Repubblica and Global Ambassador for the Renata Tebaldi Museum. In 2022 she was awarded the Abbiati Prize by the Italian Association of Music Critics.
