Fotina Naumenko, soprano, has been praised for her “radiant voice” (Boston Globe), described as both “angelic” (MusicWeb International) and “capable of spectacular virtuosic hi-jinks” (Boston Musical Intelligencer). Fotina’s singing encompasses a wide variety of vocal genres including oratorio, opera, art song, choral and contemporary music, both as a soloist and chamber musician. Festival appearances have included Ravinia, Constella, Olavfestdagene, and Tanglewood; her performances of David Lang’s just and Castiglioni’s Cantus Planus at the Tanglewood Festival of Contemporary Music were hailed as “a beautiful performance” by the New York Times and “a stunner” by the Boston Globe. Ensemble credits include GRAMMY® Award-winning Conspirare, the Experiential Chorus, GRAMMY®-nominated groups Skylark, Clarion, the Saint Tikhon Choir, and PaTRAM, as well as Cappella Romana, Coro Volante, Alium Spiritum, and Cincinnati’s Vocal Arts Ensemble. She is a graduate of the Eastman School of Music (Rochester, NY), the Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music (Cincinnati, OH), and the Rimsky-Korsakov State Conservatory of St. Petersburg, Russia, where she completed a Fulbright grant specializing in Russian vocal repertoire.
