Abstract

This text presents a profile of the musical activity developed in Chile by Miryam Singer González, winner of the 2020 National Prize for Musical Arts. It is limited to her work as a singer, director, and opera régisseur, and to her active participation in institutional and private production projects of musical diffusion, aimed at different audiences, materialized in concert and opera seasons, festivals, documentaries, among others, thanks to an effective cultural management. As far as possible, I present testimonies both from the opinion of critics about his artistic performance, as well as from her own thinking. The main sources that feed this work are press reviews, most of them gathered by Miryam Singer herself and hosted on her website, some informative databases, audiovisual records of her productions and interviews with different media.
