Opernsängerin Uliana Alexyuk besucht 9cd
Beim gemeinsamen Opernbesuch der Klassen 9c und 9d hatte das Spiel und der Gesang einer Sängerin des Badischen Staatstheaters die Schülerinnen besonders beeindruckt: Die Darstellerin der “Blonden”, Uliana Alexyuk. Umso größer war die Freude, als diese sich spontan bereit erklärte, den Unterricht zu besuchen.

Nach einer kurzen Feedbackrunde, gestaltet durch die Theaterpädagogin Sarah Modeß, stand die aus der Ukraine stammende Sängerin Rede und Antwort zu allen Fragen. Die Verständigung auf Englisch klappte problemlos und so entspann sich ein intensives Gespräch über Leben und Arbeiten einer Opernsängerin. Höhepunkt und Abschluss des Treffens bildete eine Opernarie – gemeinsam gesungen von Uliana Alexyuk und den 46 Schülerinnen der Klassen 9c und 9d!

Bellini – I Capuleti e i Montecchi, June 4, 2016
Enthusiastic audience in Belcanto happiness

The Giulietta of Uliana Alexyuk already has her made performance in the first scene with the romance “Oh! Quante volte” – the hit aria of the opera, in duet with the harp, Alexyuk succeeds in a weightless lyric and yet longing way. Alexyuk also plays her part completely and sings it with wonderful piani and bewitching sound; her voice expresses purity, fragility and innocence. The duets – breathtaking, intimate melody, in the death scene it was yesterday utter stillness in the audience. For both main actresses, the many BRAVAS were highly earned.

Houston Chronicle Review – RIGOLETTO

“Soprano Uliana Alexyuk captured Gilda’s sweetness, ardor and vulnerability with her voice’s changing shades, from silky to vibrant to hushed. Alexyuk, a member of Houston Grand Opera Studio, stepped into the role late in rehearsals, replacing Elizabeth Zhdanoff; nevertheless, she dovetailed with the rest of the cast.”

New Houston Young Artist 2013

576559_3777528750586_1367045991_nHouston Grand Opera has chosen Uliana as one of their three new singers in its training program, HGO Studio. She joins two pianists also in the program next season.   HGO received applications from 641 aspiring performers, and its staff heard more than 200 of them in auditions in Houston, New York, Philadelphia, Cincinnati and San Francisco. The five taken into the program will join seven returning from last season. Uliana will sing as her first role the part of Ida and the cover of Adele in J. Strauss’ Die Fledermaus: hopefully this will be only the first of many roles to come at the Texas opera house. Read more here 

Debut at Glyndebourne!

zerbinettaglyndebourneUlyana made an earlier-than-expected debut at the English festival this last Thursday, jumping in for an ailing colleague.  She sang her debut with aplomb and had one commenter on The Spectator commenting:

“Ulyana Aleksyuk stood in for the indisposed Claycomb and looked astonishing – if ENSA really had performers like her they’d have had to put bromide in the tea of the troops in large quantities. Given the short notice she apparently had Ms Aleksyuk performed really well …”

“Whilst one must wish Laura Claycomb an alacritous recovery, her replacement Ulyana Aleksyuk gave a breath-taking Glyndebourne début as Zerbinetta, performing the role with all the coquettishness and coloratura agility required of an infamously difficult part.”

More pictures to come soon!
