Olga Mykytenko, soprano

 

Ukrainian soprano Olga Mykytenko has won several international awards, among them the Maria Callas International Singing Contest in Athens (1997), the Francisco Vinas contest in Barcelona (1997) and the Queen Sonja Competition in Oslo (2003). Until 2005 she was engaged as a soloist at the Ukrainian National Opera in Kiev, where she made her debut in 1995.

Since 2001, Olga has frequently been invited to many European opera houses to perform such major roles as the title role in Tchaikovsky's Iolanta in Vienna, Violetta in La Traviata in Munich, Riga, Brussels and Lisbon, Lucia in Lucia di Lammermoor at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, Musetta in La Bohème at the Rome Opera under the direction of Franco Zefirelli and Mimi in Salzburg. In 2004 she made her debut at Savonlinna Opera Festival as Nedda in I Pagliacci.

During the 04/05 season, she sang Liù at the Welsh National Opera and at the Berlin State Opera, Gilda at the Hamburg State Opera and Violetta at the Hong Kong International Music Festival and returned to the Savonlinna Opera Festival with the role of Liù.  Recent engagements include Mimì at the Berlin State Opera, Aalto Theatre in Essen and at the Royal Norwegian Opera, Lucia (Lucia di Lammermoor) in Essen and a role debut as Micaëla (Carmen) at the Savonlinna Opera Festival.

In 2006 Olga is looking forward to make her role debut as Tatiana in Yevgeny Onegin at the Lyon Opera, to sing Gilda in Stockholm Royal Opera and make her MET debut as Rosina and Lauretta in Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi conducted by maestro James Levine.
