The Italian mezzo-soprano Cecilia Bartoli is an opera singer and recitalist. She is best-known for her Mozart and Rossini roles as well as for her performances of lesser-known Baroque music. Bartoli is considered a coloratura mezzo-soprano (Koloratur-Mezzosopran), with perhaps less of a "large voice" than some other mezzos, but with a highly individual timbre which she uses to great vocal and dramatic effect.
