Alexandra Lowe

Soprano

A graduate of the esteemed Jette Parker Artist Programme at Royal Opera House, Covent Garden Lowe’s debuts ranged from Handel’s Dafne (Apollo e Dafne) under Christian Curnyn, Second Niece in Deborah Warner’s new production of Peter Grimes under Sir Mark Elder, Barbarina (Le nozze di Figaro) under Sir Antonio Pappano, culminating in her tour-de-force acclaimed Pierrot Lunaire. Since then, Lowe has made a series of distinguished debuts, as Donna Elvira (Don Giovanni) for both Glyndebourne Festival Opera and Kilden Opera, Fiordiligi (Così fan tutte) for Opera North, Countess (Le nozze di Figaro) with the Mozartists, and staged performances of Mozart’s Requiem and Bologne’s L’amante anonyme once more for Glyndebourne.

On the concert platform her debut highlights have included Fifth Maid in Elektra with Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia under Sir Antonio Pappano, Wellgunde in Götterdämmerung with London Philharmonic Orchestra under Vladimir Jurowski, Messiah with Hallé Orchestra under Sofi Jeannin, and further collaborations with Academy of Ancient Music/Laurence Cummings, Scottish Opera/Stuart Stratford, Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra/ Marios Papadopoulos and Opera North Orchestra/Jonathan Bloxham.

A keen recitalist, Alexandra’s debut solo album - Le Voyage – centered around French Romantic song repertoire, was released last season on the Champs Hill label and nominated in the BBC Music Magazine Awards 2024.
