The
Neapolitan pianist Emma Abbate pursues a varied career as a chamber
musician, vocal coach and teacher. Based in London, Emma is a professor
at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama. She also works for Opera
North and acts as a staff accompanist at Trinity College of Music.
Emma has just released L’Infinito for Urania Records – an exploration of 20th century Italian songs with the mezzo-soprano Kamelia Kader, which includes works by Respighi, Casella, Alfano and Castelnuovo-Tedesco. This is the first in a series of recordings devoted to 20th century Italian vocal chamber music that Emma is devising. 2012 has also seen the release of her second CD with Toccata Classics: the world-première recording of works for cello and piano by the late-romantic English composer Algernon Ashton with the cellist Evva Mizerska (please see the discography page). |
