Jeanne Crousaud
Soprano
Biography
After studying at the CNSM in Paris (graduating with honors by unanimous decision), Jeanne Crousaud was entrusted with two leading roles, contrasting in style yet similar in difficulty: Ciboulette in Mesdames de la Halle by Offenbach at the Opéra Studio de Lyon, and The Little Prince in the eponymous opera by Michael Levinas (performed at Théâtre du Châtelet, Lausanne Opera, Geneva, Lille, and more), in which she received great acclaim.
In the course of her young career, she has portrayed roles such as Blondchen (Die Entführung aus dem Serail), Aspasia (Mitridate), Elvira (L'Italiana in Algeri), Clorinde (in Isouard's Cendrillon), Zerlina (Auber's La Sirène), Musetta (La Bohème), Ernestine (Monsieur Choufleuri), the First Nymph (Rusalka), The Princess (in V. Cruz's La Princesse légère), Amour (Orfeo ed Euridice), Flavie (Hervé's L'Elixir), Naiad (Ariadne auf Naxos), and both Athena and Circe (in Jules Matton's L’Odyssée).
She has notably shared the stage with Felicity Lott at the European Festival of Young Talents and with Michael Spyres in Ferdinand Hérold's Le Pré aux Clercs as Nicette at the Gulbenkian Foundation in Lisbon, produced by the Opéra Comique and recorded by Palazzetto Bru Zane.
The young soprano has had the opportunity to work with conductors such as Arie van Beek, Paul McCreesh, Raphaël Pichon, David Reiland, and Giuseppe Grazioli, as well as directors Joël Pommerat, André Engel, Benjamin Lazar, Lilo Baur, Dieter Kaegi, Vincent Vittoz, and Nicola Berloffa; and composers Francesco Filidei, Benjamin Attahir, Jean-Luc Hervé, Violeta Cruz, Raphaël Cendo, and Jules Matton.
She also performs regularly with the baroque ensemble Desmarest, with whom she recorded Enone (La descente d’Orphée aux Enfers by Marc-Antoine Charpentier) in May 2018.
In 2019-2020, she reprised the role of Clorinde (Cendrillon by Isouard) at the Théâtre de Caen.
The following season, she prepared for the role of Fantasia (Le Voyage dans la Lune) in Montpellier and took on her first Donna Anna (in Don Giovanni) at the Nuits Lyriques de Marmande.
During the 2021-2022 season, she achieved great success in the role of Ophélie (Hamlet) in Saint-Etienne.
Last season, she reprised Fantasia in Metz and Reims, and made her debut at the Paris Opera by stepping in for Lisette Oropesa as Ophélie in the public dress rehearsal of Hamlet.
She also portrayed Arthur (La Nonne Sanglante) in Saint-Etienne and premiered Cantico delle Creature by Francesco Filidei in Italy at the Teatro Carlo Felice in Genoa.
