Patricia Caicedo (born 1969)[1] is a Colombian-Spanish classical soprano and musicologist who specializes in the study and performance of the Latin American and Spanish art song repertoire in Spanish, Catalan, Portuguese and Indigenous languages. She is also a trained physician.

Life and career

[edit]

Born in the Colombian city of Ibagué, Caicedo started studying music in her childhood at the Conservatorio de música del Tolima. She began singing in her teens, initially singing folk Latin American music. In 1992, after completing medical studies at the Escuela Colombiana de Medicina,[2] she initiated voice studies at the Conservatorio del Tolima[3] and later in Barcelona and New York. She studied with Rocio Rios, Alfredo Kraus, Maya Maiska, and Gilberto Escobar.

In 1993, she made her professional debut at the International Festival of Classical Music, accompanied by the Tolima Symphony Orchestra. She performed as a soloist in Juan Crisóstomo Arriaga's Stabat Mater and Pergolesi's Stabat Mater[4][non-primary source needed] and in other recitals. In 1993, she received first prize in the Concurso Nacional del Bambuco competition, and in 1998 she was named best classical soloist in Colombia by Sony Music.[citation needed]

Caicedo specialized in Latin American and Iberian vocal repertoire. In this area she has published several books and CDs and frequently gives master classes,[5] lectures, and recitals in European and American universities.[6][7][8] In 2013 she completed a PhD in musicology at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid, her dissertation title is The Latin American Art Song: National Identity, Performance Practice and the Worlds of Art.[9]

Since 2001 Caicedo has developed a busy concert and recording agenda. She has recorded eleven albums dedicated to the Latin American and Iberian Art Song repertoire in Spanish, Catalan and Portuguese.[citation needed] Caicedo has published several books, articles and CDs related to the Latin American, Catalan and Iberian vocal repertoire.[10][11][12][13][14][15][16]

A co-founder of the Latin American Art Song Alliance (LAASA), Caicedo founded Mundo Arts,[17] a company that publishes and distributes Latin American art song.[18][19]

In 2005, she founded the Barcelona Festival of Song,[19][18] an annual summer program for classical singers and a concert series dedicated to the study of the history and interpretation of the Latin American and Iberian vocal repertoire. The festival celebrates its twentieth edition in 2024.

Since 2008, Caicedo was included in the Who's Who in America. Published by Marquis, Who's Who is the leading biographical reference publisher of the highest achievers and contributors from across the country and around the world. Her inclusion represents a tribute to her discipline and hard work as an advocate of the Latin American and Spanish music. Since 2010 Caicedo is also included in the Who's Who in American Women and Who´s Who in the World.[1][20]

In 2014, she created EYECatalunya, an interactive Internet platform dedicated to internationally promote Catalan creativity.[21]

In 2020 Caicedo was elected as an executive board member[22] of the International Music Council,[3] an organization founded in 1949 by UNESCO. The IMC[23] is the world's largest network of organizations and institutions working in the field of music. It promotes access to music for all and the value of music in the lives of all people.

In 2020 the National Association of Teachers of Singing (NATS)[24] of the United States highlighted Caicedo's contribution to the diversity[25] in vocal performance and research. In the same year, the European Voice Teacher Association invited her as a keynote speaker at EUROVOX[26] the congress of the association.

In 2022 Caicedo was invited as a visiting scholar at the Iberian and Latin American Music Center of the University of California Riverside, where she spent six months.[27] In the same year she presented lectures and masterclasses at Montclair University,[28] George Mason University, CalPoly,[29] New York University, University of North Carolina School of the Arts,[30] University of California Irvine.,[31] Texas Christian University [32] the University of Texas Rio Grande [33] She presented a Masterclass of Latin American and Iberian Art Songs at the International Congress of Voice Teachers in Vienna.[34] and a lecture about digital musicology at the Annual Meeting of the American Musicological Society in New Orleans.[35]

In 2023, Caicedo received invitations as an artist and scholar in residence at prestigious institutions including Vanderbilt University, the Eastman School of Music,[36] Bucknell University, Texas State University,[37] Montclair University, the Boston Conservatory,[38] Berklee School of Music, Goshen College,[39] the School of Medicine at the University of Rochester, and the University of Toronto, where she held the distinguished title of the 2023 John Stratton Visitor in Music.[40][41] This honor, named after the renowned collector of vocal music and historical recorded sound, John R. Stratton, serves to bring eminent specialists in voice, opera, and collaborative piano to the Faculty of Music.

Simultaneously, Caicedo's work gained further recognition when a prominent article about her accomplishments was featured in the October 2023 issue of the prestigious Classical Singer Magazine.[42] In the same year, she served as a keynote speaker at Ritmo Budapest[43] and delivered lectures at esteemed institutions such as the University of Vienna and Trinity College of Music.

Since 1998, Caicedo has lived in Barcelona, Spain, and has double citizenship, Colombian and Spanish.
