Known as the "Fiery Soprano", Colombian-born Catalina Cuervo holds the distinction of having performed the most productions of Piazzolla's María de Buenos Aires. Ms. Cuervo has performed the role of "Maria" for numerous prestigious companies including Florida Grand Opera, Cincinnati Opera, and Syracuse Opera to name a few. Following her debut as "Maria" in Chicago, Catalina performed at venues and festivals including "Chicago Dance Festival" and "Latino Music Festival" together with Kaia Quartet and the acclaimed tango show "This is Tango"; which as a result has given her a big following by Tango lovers in Chicago and other cities.
"It's all about the music. You hear the first four notes and you're into it, the world of tango, the nightlife of Buenos Aires" says Cuervo, of playing the role.
