JULIETTE POCHIN
|
Juliette initially trained as a violinist before reading music at Cambridge. She went on to the Guildhall School of Music and Drama from which she graduated with distinction and the highest mark of her year. Her operatic and concert career has led her to perform with many of the countries leading orchestras and at some of Europe’s premier venues including the Berlin Philharmonie under Sir Simon Rattle, the Lincoln Center, New York, under Sir John Eliot Gardiner, South Bank, Barbican, Brighton Festival, Fairfield Halls and St John’s Smith Square. Operatic roles include Tisbe Cenerentola, Madelon Fortunio, Dorabella Cosi, Olga Onegin, Annina Traviata and the Sorceress Dido. She created the role of ‘Flamingo Rock Star’ in the world premiere of the opera The Birds which toured the UK and Spain. As a recitalist Juliette has sung in the Purcell Room, Adrian Boult Hall and appeared with Graham Johnson at the Klavier-Festival Ruhr in Germany. She can also be heard on the soundtracks to Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter and Star Wars.
Juliette has appeared with Hayley Westenra (for the charity Global Angels for whom she is an ambassador), with Meatloaf in Mannheim, Germany, and has also sung at both the new Wembley Stadium and at the Millenium Stadium, Cardiff. Her voice recently inspired Hotel Chocolat to design and name a chocolate after her. Juliette also composes and produces as one half of the partnership Morgan Pochin (credits include a Classical Brit nomination for Katherine Jenkins’s debut album and the Kumars at No.42), and she is also the music director of Brighton Festival Youth Choir. Juliette’s debut album, Venezia is on general release on the Sony BMG label. |
