Laura Volpi

Laura Volpi used to be Bachtrack's Commissioning Editor. Having studied singing as part of the choir of Teatro Alla Scala, Milano, in her native Italy, she has a soft spot for Mozart operas and contemporary dance, but also loves all classical music. A published author and magazine writer, in summer you can find her queuing for the Proms or in Hyde Park listening to Vivaldi while feeding carrots to squirrels.
