Laura Ansaldi is an internationally acclaimed Italian soprano, actress, and interdisciplinary artist with over 15 years of experience.
She is celebrated for her powerful voice, remarkable vocal flexibility, and innovative approach to performance, blending classical opera with contemporary art. Laura is also recognized for her singular artistic vision: reimagining traditional recitals as immersive experiences. Through movement, acting, and onstage interaction, she transcends classical boundaries and invites audiences to discover opera as a vibrant, living art form.
Laura has been dedicated to her education since a young age, attending prestigious institutions such as the Music Conservatory of Genoa and Milan, the Accademia Chigiana in Siena, the Music School of Fiesole, and the advanced training academy TEMA in Milan. In addition to opera singing, she holds degrees in piano and performing arts.
Her extensive repertoire includes lyrical roles such as Lucia di Lammermoor, Elisir d’Amore, and La Traviata, as well as more dramatic parts like Madama Butterfly, Norma, Abigaille in Nabucco, and Maddalena in Andrea Chénier. Classified as a lyrical spinto soprano with exceptional coloratura skills, Laura’s vocal and expressive range has earned her acclaim on international stages.
