Lorena Stipani is a soprano I saw perform at the wonderful Entrecôte restaurant in Prahran, Melbourne in her Edith Piaf show earlier this year. I was blown away by her amazing talent.


In this episode I chat to Lorena about living & studying abroad, then returning to Australia finding that during the pandemic she was able to dive head-first into her work. She has written a new show filled with the music of Edith Piaf and telling the story of her life.

Lorena conveys such intense feeling and emotion when singing about Piaf. She says she feels such a connection to Edith. She loves Edith's passion... she loves her vulnerability... and has to take care not to let that emotion overcome her when she's singing. 

Lorena tells us a little of the story of Edith's life taking us on a wonderful journey in this chat. She has a connection to all things French, especially being married to a Frenchman! We hear about the French culture being a part of their daily lives with celebrations, loads of French food, wine and costumes!
