about
Sarah Aristidou, or Sarah Mzali-Aristidouborn 1991) is a French operatic soprano who has performed internationally. She is interested in contemporary music and has appeared in world premieres. Composers such as Aribert Reimann and Jörg Widmann have written music for her. Aristidou's first CD appeared in 2021, titled Æther, with works by Edgar Varèse, Francis Poulenc, Leo Delibes, Ambroise Thomas, Jörg Widmann, Claude Debussy, Igor Strawinsky, Thomas Adès, George Frideric Handel and Udo Zimmermann, with pianist Daniel Barenboim, flutist Emmanuel Pahud, guitarist Christian Rivet, the Chor der Klangverwaltung and Orchester des Wandels conducted by Thomas Guggeis. Widmann's Labyrinth V was written for the singer, and the wordless piece contains "ululations, sobs, jazz inflections and wild laughter", according to a reviewer from Gramophone. She also released an EP in 2021, title S'Agapo, with Cypriot folksongs arranged by Kaan Bulak and remixed by DJs Ricardo Villalobos and Ale Hop.
