Polish soprano Aleksandra Kurzak is a recipient of one of this year’s Readers’ Awards for opera singers of the year at the 2015 International Opera Awards. The awards were presented on April 26, 2015 during a gala at the London Savoy theatre.

According to Filip Lech of Culture.pl:

The International Opera Awards are presented by Opera Magazine, a periodical that has commented on the events of the opera houses of the world since the 1950s. The statuettes are presented to finalists in a number of categories, including conductors, directors, male and female singers, new productions and rediscovered operas. The Readers’ Award has become increasingly popular – the readers of Opera Magazine can select their favourite male and female opera singers online. This year the award was presented to the Polish soprano Aleksandra Kurzak and the German tenor Jonas Kaufmann.
