Estefanía Holman,
Soprano


Versión en español.


“Barry Kolman first met Estefania in Argentina when she was 15 years old. He had been told of her talent but was skeptical (…) Her singing made such an impression on him that he invited her to perform with the Shennadoah Symphony in Virginia and later to the Midland Odessa (…) When Estefania made her entrance, the audience was entranced (…) Her rendition in Spanish of Don’t cry for me, Argentina from Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Evita brought the audience to its feet.”




Estefania Holman was born in 1984, in Punta Alta, province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. She began her piano studies very young, but her inclination was towards singing. Estefania Holman`s studies took place between Argentina and Italy. Her singing lessons were dictated by Lucia Boero, Mirta Garbarini, Jose Crea, Africa De Retes and Diana Maria. In Milano, Italy, her private singing lessons were dictated by the well-known soprano Maria Luisa Cioni. In Buenos Aires she took acting lessons with Lito Cruz, Carlos Moreno and Rodolfo Graziano, vocal technique with Lucía Boero, and opera and theater acting technique with Lizzie Waisse. At the age of 13, she won "Voice of the year" for the television program "Tango en la Bahía". She participated in the Juvenile Tournaments in Buenos Aires winning the municipal and regional phases, passing on to the finals in the city of Mar del Plata. She won the silver medal in popular repertoire and the gold medal in Tango. By the time she was 15, she had won distinguished honors in Festival de Cosquin, one of the most important festivals of popular music in Argentina.

She began her international career in the United States premiering a new style of tango as symphonic lied. She was very successful in her performances with the Tennessee Philharmonic Orchestra, in Virginia. She was invited with the Symphony Orchestra of Maracaibo in Venezuela, and Gruppo Strumentale Venetto G.F. Malipiero invited her to perform traditional tangos by Astor Piazzolla, in Venice. In Sicily she sang in the Basilica of Riposto and as soloist with the Symphonic Orchestra of Ploïesti (Rumania) where she brought the house down for her interpretation in Spanish of "Don´t Cry for me Argentina". The governor of Brussels invited her for a tango recital in her private residence where many prominent personalities of the Belgian culture had the pleasure of hearing her. Estefania Holman was invited to be soloist with the Orchestra Sinfonica della Provincia di Bari during the Festival "Omaggio ad Astor Piazzola", performing four concerts. Laura Escala, widow of the famous composer Piazzola, attended one of the concerts congratulating the young singer and promising a great future. She was able to perform her beloved repertoire the following year. Estefania performed with the Symphonic Orchestra Do Norte, in Portugal, and Filharmonie Hrades Kravole Orchestra (Czech Republic) produced a special program for her. Midland - Odessa Symphony and Chorale (Texas) invited her as a soloist, and she also succeeded with the well Known Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. That same year she performed with the Symphony Orchestra in Mar del Plata (Argentina).

Estefania’s performance has been enthusiastically embraced by audiences, presenters, and critics worldwide.
