About Martina
One of the leading Croatian-Slovenian sopranos today, Martina Zadro very soon proved herself an integrated scenic personality, continuously present at the international operatic scene entrancing audiences across Europe, from Japan to South America. The winner of the 1999 “Lucia Popp” and the “Antonin Dvořák” International vocal competitions, Martina has been gaining international recognition ever since with her clear and expressive voice and her completely devoted stage presence.
Martina was the last student of the legendary soprano Anna Moffo, with whom she studied from 2004 – 2006 in New York. After graduating and mastering in singing at the Zagreb Music Academy with prof. Snježana Bujanović-Stanislav, Martina continued her studies at the University for Music and Performing Arts in Graz, further specializing with Croatian baritone Vitomir Marof and Slovak pedagogue prof. Eva Blahovà.
"Martina Zadro has a remarkable musical presence and creative urge while expanding Antonia from innocence to greater drama so it seems her voice is now somewhat beyond lyrical."
Dnevnik, Gregor Pompe
"It is a quest and revelation that Martina Zadro interprets with her distinctive and dynamic soprano. She wonderfully conveys Clara Schumann’s poetic sense into an inward intensity with a sonorous voice, powerful heights and warm timbre."
Von Marion Heier, Der Patriot
"Martina Zadro is formidable… her sense of nuances in playing is visible both in her acting as well as in the abundancy of her voice, with radiant heights and a beautiful unity of registers."
