Bartoli after a concert performance of La Cenerentola at the Salle Pleyel, 2008 Cecilia Bartoli OMRI ( Italian: [tʃeˈtʃiːlja ˈbartoli]; born 4 June 1966) is an Italian mezzo-soprano, widely known for her renditions of the music of Bellini, Handel, Mozart, Rossini, and Vivaldi, as well as lesser-known music of the Baroque and Classical periods. She has also sung soprano and alto repertory.
Bartoli is considered a singer with an unusual timbre. According to Nicholas Wroe in 2001, her voice was known for its "fully developed sumptuousness of the lower register, the vibrancy of the middle range...the top was limpid and powerful." She has been one of the most popular opera stars of recent years.
