Sumi Jo: a tribute to Maria Callas in Australia

The South Korean Grammy Award winning soprano, Sumi Jo, is internationally renowned for her interpretations of the bel canto repertoire. On November, during her concert tour in Australia, she dazzled the audience with a tribute to the great Maria Callas. In this occasion, the soprano was elegantly accompanied by Gary Matthewman on piano.

Ms. Sumi Jo loves wearing lavish haute couture dresses custom-made by the designer Seo Seung-Yeon. Often the diva wears gowns made of sumptuous fabrics, voluminous skirts, close-fitting bodices, huge trains, ruffles and colourful crystals.

In the photos, some examples of the gowns worn in Australian concerts.
