Vladimir Stoyanov
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vladimir Stoyanov was born in Pernik. There weren't any musicians in his family. His mother, Venera, was a nurse, and his father, Stoil, was a lawyer. He started singing when he was young in the choir of Prof. Zoya Vidas, where he sang for seven years. Later, when his voice started changating, his interest in opera singing grew, so he signed up in the National Music School "Lyubomir Pipkov". He graduated from the National Music Academy "Pancho Vladigerov" in Sofia.
Stoyanov made his debut on the stage of the Bourgas Opera House in 1993. In 1994 he took a specialization course at the Boris Hristov Academy in Rome with Nicola Ghiuselev. That year he also specialized at the Academy of the La Scala in Milan with Magda Olivero. Following three successful seasons with the Plovdiv Opera House, since 1999 he has been an independent soloist. Same year, he made his debut in Thracia Summer Music Festival with Plovdiv Philharmonic Orchestra.
