Wenza i-debut yakhe ngo-1995 eLa Traviata eMegaron Theatre e-Athene. Umculi ophambili womculo kaVerdi, Donizetti kanye noBellini, uTeodossiu ukhombise ithalente lakhe ngobuhlakani obukhethekile ngonyaka wemigubho yeVerdi. Izinkathi zonyaka ezidlule bezicebile ngempumelelo yokudala: u-Attila no-Stiffelio e-Trieste, i-La Traviata e-Helsinki ne-Troubadour e-Montecarlo. Enye i-Troubadour, kulokhu eholwa ngu-Maestro Riccardo Muti, idlala okokuqala e-La Scala. Ukuphumelela komuntu siqu ku-opera efanayo endaweni enhle kakhulu futhi ngesikhathi esifanayo enzima yangaphandle - i-Arena di Verona. U-Rino Alessi ukhuluma no-Dimitra Theodossiou.

Kubonakala sengathi i-"Troubadour" imiselwe ukudlala indima ekhethekile ekumiselweni kwakho...

Lapho ngineminyaka eyisithupha ubudala, ubaba, isithandwa esishisekayo se-opera, wangiyisa endaweni yeshashalazi okokuqala ngqa ekuphileni kwami. Ekupheleni komdlalo, ngamtshela ukuthi: lapho ngikhula, ngizoba uLeonora. Umhlangano we-opera wawunjengokuduma kwezulu, futhi umculo wacishe wangikhathaza kakhulu. Ngangivakashela ishashalazi kathathu ngesonto. Babengekho abaculi emndenini wami, nakuba ugogo wayephupha ngokuzinikela emculweni nasekuculeni. Impi yavimbela ukufezeka kwephupho lakhe. Ubaba wayecabanga ngomsebenzi wokuba umbhidisi, kodwa kwakudingeka usebenze, futhi umculo wawungabonakali njengomthombo onokwethenjelwa weholo.

Uxhumano lwakho emculweni ka-Verdi aluhlukaniseki...

Ama-opera e-Verdi encane ayiyona kanye ingoma engizizwa ngikhululekile kuyo. Kwabesifazane baseVerdi ngithanda isibindi, ubusha, umlilo. Ngiyazibona kubalingiswa babo, futhi ngisabela ngokushesha kulesi simo, ngijoyine impi uma kunesidingo ... Bese-ke, amaqhawekazi e-Verdi encane, njengamaqhawekazi aseBellini noDonizetti, abesifazane abathandanayo, futhi badinga izwi elizwakalayo. isitayela futhi ngesikhathi esifanayo ukuhamba okukhulu kwezwi .

Uyakholelwa ekuqeqesheni?

Yebo, ngiyakholwa, ngaphandle kokungabaza nezingxoxo. Ngafunda eJalimane, eMunich. Uthisha wami kwakunguBirgit Nickl, engisafunda naye. Angikaze ngicabange ngisho nokuba nethuba lokuba umculi oyedwa wesikhathi esigcwele kwenye yemidlalo yaseshashalazini yaseJalimane, lapho wonke umuntu ecula khona njalo kusihlwa. Izenzakalo ezinjalo zingaholela ekulahlekelweni kwezwi. Ngincamele ukuqala ngezindima ezibalulekile kumatiyetha abalulekile kakhulu. Sengineminyaka eyisikhombisa ngicula futhi umsebenzi wami uthuthuka ngokwemvelo: ngiwuthola ulungile.

Kungani ukhethe ukufunda eJalimane?

Ngoba ngingumJalimane ohlangothini lukamama. Ngangineminyaka engamashumi amabili ubudala lapho ngifika eMunich futhi ngiqala izifundo ze-accounting kanye nezomnotho zebhizinisi. Ngemva kweminyaka emihlanu, lapho sengivele ngisebenza futhi ngiziphilisa, nganquma ukuyeka yonke into futhi ngizinikele ekuculeni. Ngaya ezifundweni ezikhethekile eSikoleni Sokucula saseMunich eMunich Opera House ngaphansi kokuqondisa kukaJosef Metternich. Ngabe sengifunda e-conservatory kuyona le eMunich, lapho ngacula khona izingxenye zami zokuqala esitudiyo se-opera. Ngo-1993, ngathola umfundaze ovela endaweni kaMaria Callas e-Athens, owanginika ithuba lokuyoqala eLa Traviata eMegaron Theatre esikhathini esithile kamuva. Ngangineminyaka engamashumi amabili nesishiyagalolunye ubudala. Ngokushesha ngemva kweLa Traviata, ngacula ku-Anne Boleyn kaDonizetti eNational Opera House eKassel.

Isiqalo esihle, akukho engingakusho. La Traviata, Anne Boleyn, Maria Callas Scholarship. UngumGreki. Ngizosho into ephikisayo, kodwa kukangaki uzwile: nansi iCallas entsha?

Yebo, ngatshelwa lokhu. Ngoba angizange ngicule eLa Traviata no-Anne Boleyn kuphela, kodwa naseNorma. Angizange ngikunake. UMaria Callas uyisithixo sami. Umsebenzi wami uqondiswa isibonelo sakhe, kodwa angifuni neze ukumlingisa. Ngaphandle kwalokho, angicabangi ukuthi kungenzeka. Ngiyaziqhenya ngemvelaphi yami yamaGreki, nangeqiniso lokuthi ekuqaleni komsebenzi wami ngacula kuma-opera amabili ahlotshaniswa negama elithi Callas. Ngingasho nje ukuthi bangilethele izinhlanhla.

Kuthiwani ngemincintiswano yamazwi?

Kwakukhona futhi imincintiswano, futhi kwakuyisipiliyoni esiwusizo kakhulu: iBelvedere eVienna, iViotti eVercelli, uGiuseppe Di Stefano eTrapani, i-Operalia eqondiswa nguPlacido Domingo. Bengilokhu ngiphakathi kwabokuqala, uma kungenjalo abokuqala. Kwakungenxa yomunye wemiqhudelwano lapho ngaqala khona ukudlala njengoDonna Anna ku-Don Giovanni kaMozart, i-opera yami yesithathu, lapho uRuggero Raimondi ayenguzakwethu.

Ake sibuyele eVerdi. Ingabe ucabanga ukwandisa i-repertoire yakho esikhathini esizayo esiseduze?

Oh impela. Kodwa akuwona wonke ama-opera e-Verdi ahambisana nezwi lami, ikakhulukazi esimweni sawo samanje. Sengike nganikwa ithuba lokucula ku-Aida, kodwa kungaba yingozi enkulu kimina ukucula kule opera: kudinga ukuvuthwa kwezwi engingakafinyeleli kulo. Kungashiwo okufanayo ngebhola likaMasquerade kanye neThe Force of Destiny. Ngiyawathanda wonke lawa ma-opera, futhi ngingathanda ukucula kuwo esikhathini esizayo, kodwa manje angicabangi ngisho nokuwathinta. Nginothisha wami, ngilungiselele i-The Two Foscari, u-Joan we-Arc kanye ne-The Robbers, lapho ngenze khona umdlalo wami wokuqala ngonyaka odlule e-Teatro Massimo e-Palermo. KuDon Carlos ngacula eSan Carlo eNaples. Ake sithi okwamanje umlingiswa omangalisa kakhulu ku-repertoire yami u-Odabella e-Attila. Kuphinde kube umlingisi ophawule ingqopha-mlando emsebenzini wami.

Ngakho-ke awuboni ukuthi kungenzeka yini ukubonakala kwakho kuma-opera amabili athakazelisa kakhulu futhi amangalisayo nguVerdi osemusha, uNabucco noMacbeth?

Cha, angikulahli. I-Nabucco iyangithakasela kakhulu, kodwa angikakanikwa ukucula kuyo okwamanje. Ngokuqondene noLady Macbeth, wanikezwa kimi, futhi ngakhangwa kakhulu ukuba ngicule le ngxenye, ngoba ngicabanga ukuthi leli qhawekazi linikezwe amandla kangangokuthi u-willy-nilly kumele ahunyushwe usemncane futhi izwi lakho lisha. Nokho, abaningi bangeluleka ukuba ngihlehlise umhlangano wami noLady Macbeth. Ngazitshela ukuthi: UVerdi wayefuna umculi onezwi elibi ukuze acule le ntokazi, ngizolinda kuze kube yilapho izwi lami liba libi.

Uma singafaki uLiu ku-"Turandot", awukaze ucule emisebenzini yekhulu lamashumi amabili. Awuyengwa yini abalingiswa ababalulekile njengoTosca noma uSalome?

Cha, uSalome ungumlingiswa ongixoshayo. Amaqhawekazi engiwakhonzile uLucia kaDonizetti no-Anne Boleyn. Ngiyayithanda imizwa yabo evuthayo, ubuhlanya babo. Emphakathini esiphila kuwo, akunakwenzeka ukuveza imizwa ngendlela esifuna ngayo, futhi kumculi, i-opera iba uhlobo lokwelapha. Futhi-ke, uma ngitolika umlingiswa, kufanele ngiqiniseke ngo-XNUMX%. Bangitshela ukuthi eminyakeni engamashumi amabili ngizokwazi ukucula kuma-opera kaWagner. Kwazi bani? Angikenzi noma yiziphi izinhlelo zale repertoire okwamanje.
