In August 2017, Mariana De la Rosa arrived in Quebec from Mexico with dreams and a suitcase full of music. While studying for a Bachelor of Music at Université de Sherbrooke, this mezzo-soprano became a self-producer. Passionate about opera, she aims to share it widely through original productions with positive social messages. Among her creations are: Dualité, Et in terra pax, Eurotour, Synesthésie: Musique et couleurs, and Racines transposées. Recent highlights include performing at Consulmex Montréal’s independence ceremony, Racines transposées at the Espacio Mexico of the Consulmex, and the world premiere of Sortilegio at Salle Pierre-Mercure. She has performed at the AVEC and La brise culturelle de Sherbrooke festivals and represented Mexico at Dialogues week. In March 2024, she released her first album, Rosas y espinas, exploring love through Mexican and Italian classical music. She is promoting it on tour in Quebec and Ontario, where the audience's enthusiasm has been palpable in concert.
