Asmik Grigorian

Soprano Asmik Grigorian has excelled in operatic roles from several national traditions and of multiple voice types. Grigorian made well-regarded debut appearances in Lithuania, Latvia, and Russia before performing in what became trademark Tchaikovsky roles at the Theater an der Wien and the Komische Oper Berlin in the early 2010s. An award as Best Newcomer at the International Opera Awards in London in 2016 spread Grigorian's reputation, and that year, she appeared on the album Dmitri Hvorostovsky Sings of War, Peace, Love and Sorrow. In 2022, she released her debut solo album, Dissonances, a recital of songs by Rachmaninov, on which she was backed by pianist Lukas Geniušas.
