GEORGIA KNOWER graduated with a BMus(HONS) from the University of Edinburgh, a Postgraduate Diploma in Performance and the Licentiate of the Royal Academy of Music from RAM, achieving the Nan Copeland Award, Ernest Butcher Prize, Toba Mann Award, Bucher Fraser Scholarship (Edinburgh) and a grant from the Mario Lanza Educational Foundation. She currently studies with soprano, Vera Wenkert.
Since August 2015, Georgia has been singing in the Chorus at Theater Basel, Switzerland where she recently performed the role of Lady Vaingloire in Karmina Šilec's chorus opera, Fauvel. Previously, Georgia had guest engagements at the Konzert Theater Bern in several productions includingMacbeth, Peter Grimes and Fauré's Requiem; a production by the choreographer Nanine Linning. Georgia also has a close bond with Brazilian composer, Mario Ferraro and has sung as Yawareté, the mystical jaguar in The Moonflower, based on issues in and around the Amazon rainforest at the Tête-à-Tête Festival in London and Goffrey, the gopher in Ahaiyuta and the Cloud Eater. The latter was supported by the Maternik Foundation, which was performed to terminally-ill children around England.
Aside from opera, Georgia is half of The Colours of Eden, together with Brazilian guitarist, Fabricio Mattos. They have embarked on a creative project linking different genres of music through a story and performed around Europe, most recently in March 2017 at the Thames Tunnel Shaft and at Theater Basel last December as part of the Adventskalender. In 2015, they performed at the Tedx Lugano talks and in Curitiba and Rio de Janeiro, where Georgia also gave a masterclass to the vocal students at the UNIRIO. She is also currently working on the "Kinderstube" programme with pianist, Boris Chnaider, which has been and continues to be performed in and around Basel.
Georgia has worked with many inspiring musicians in masterclasses including Eugene Asti, Ameral Gunson, Lillian Watson, Paul Kiesgen, Hans Peter Blochwitz, Ingeborg Danz, Rosalind Plowright, Mladen Tarbuk, Mathias Behrends, Vera Wenkert and David Jones.
