Career


Stefanoff was born in Karl-Marx-Stadt, the daughter of Bulgarian tenor Stefan Stefanoff.[3] She studied voice at the Musikhochschule Dresden, graduating in 2010.[2] She was successful at competitions, such as a third prize at Bundeswettbewerb Gesang in Berlin in 2002,[4] and winner of the Orpheum Public Award for Mozart in Zürich in 2004.[2] She became a member of the Theater Erfurt, then of the Stadttheater Pforzheim and from 2007 to 2014 at Theater Bremen.[5] She moved to soprano roles in 2013.[6] Stefanoff appeared as a guest at the Deutsche Oper am Rhein, Staatsoper Stuttgart, Komische Oper Berlin and Oper Bonn. She made recordings with the Staatsoperette Dresden [de].[2][7]

She moved to the Staatstheater Mainz with the 2014/15 season.[8] She performed there the title roles of Cherubini's Mèdèe, Bellini's Norma and Puccini's Manon Lescaut[9] and Tosca, and as Madame Lidoine in Poulenc's Dialogues des Carmélites.[2]

In the 2020/21 season, she appeared as Marta in Weinberg's Die Passagierin at the Oper Graz,[6] recorded on CD.[10][11] Stefanoff portrayed the title role, a Russian princess, of Giordano's Fedora at the Oper Frankfurt in a new production in 2022, directed by Christof Loy and conducted by Lorenzo Passerini, alongside Jonathan Tetelman as Loris Ipanov.[6][12][13] Reviewer Jan Brachmann from the FAZ noted the brilliance and agility of her voice, assertive even when singing softly.[14]
