Daniela Barcellona
Italian mezzo Daniela Barcellona was born in Trieste in 1969 and trained there with Alessandro Vitiello, whom she subsequently married. She specialises in bel canto travesty-roles (notably Rossini’s Arsace, Malcolm and Tancredi), though her repertoire also encompasses dramatic mezzo roles such as Santuzza, Amneris, Eboli and La Principessa in Adriana Lecouvreur.
