I hope that everyone comes out to hear her perform!”
Hungarian-born soprano Csilla Boross is one of the world's leading contemporary dramatic sopranos today. She is famed for her iconic role of Abigaille from Verdi's Nabucco, with which she exploded into international recognition.

Ms. Boross is very well known to the Pittsburgh audiences for her roaring success as Abigaille in Verdi's Nabucco with Pittsburgh Opera.
