"Sure enough, the nightingale appears, here the sweet-voiced and technically agile Russian coloratura soprano Olga Peretyatko.."
(New York Times, Igor Stravinsky: "The Nightingale")

Dubbed a coloratura phenomenon by the critics, the Russian soprano Olga Peretyatko, who wins enthusiastic ovations wherever she performs, comes from St Petersburg. She began her musical career at the age of 15 in the Mariinsky Theatre's children's choir, where she became choirleader, and continued her singing studies at the Hanns Eisler-Hochschule für Musik in Berlin. She has a number of international competition successes and prizes to her credit, including second prize at the prestigious Operalia competition in Paris.

From 2005–2007 she was a member of the opera studio at the Hamburg State Opera. She then went on to perform at the Deutsche Oper Berlin, the Berlin Staatsoper, the Bavarian State Opera in Munich, the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris, the Teatro La Fenice in Venice, the Rossini Opera Festival in Pesaro and La Folle Journée festival in Nantes. Her highly successful performance as the Nightingale in Stravinsky's eponymous opera at the Aix-en-Provence festival in 2010 was later repeated in Amsterdam, New York and Canada. Future engagements will take her to the Rossini Opera Festival in Pesaro (Matilde di Shabran), the Opéra de Lausanne (L´elisir d´amore), the Vienna State Opera (Rigoletto), the Hamburg State Opera (L´elisir d´amore and Ariadne auf Naxos), and in 2013 to the Mozartwochen in Salzburg and to the Salzburg Festival (Lucio Silla) alongside Rolando Villazón.

Olga Peretyatko has worked with such renowned conductors as Daniel Barenboim, Lorin Maazel, Zubin Mehta, Renato Palumbo, Marc Minkowski and Alberto Zedda. She records exclusively for Sony Classical which, in 2011, issued her highly acclaimed CD "La Bellezza del Canto" with the Münchner Rundfunkorchester conducted by Miguel Ángel Gómez-Martínez.
