About this person

Béatrice Uria-Monzon was a French mezzo-soprano. Her signature role was Bizet's Carmen, performed first in 1993 at the Opéra Bastille and then at leading opera houses especially in France, but also at the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires, the Metropolitan Opera in New York City and La Scala in Milan. She focused on French repertoire, including Charlotte in Massenet's Werther and other of the composer's heroines, and Béatrice in Béatrice et Bénédict and Marguerite in la Damnation de Faust, both by Berlioz. She also portrayed characters from the Italian repertoire, such as Eboli in Verdi's Don Carlos and Santuzza in Mascagni's Cavalleria rusticana, later also including soprano roles such as Puccini's Tosca. She appeared in world premieres including Luca Francesconi's Trompe-la-mort in Paris in 2017.
