Elisabete Matos’ clear and touching voice has enchanted audiences from all over the world and left an imprint with her way of acting in the most important theatres, as La Scala di Milano or New York Metropolitan Opera House, bringing out on stage the warmer and milder roles of the history of the opera.

She maintains a deep relationship with her homeland, Portugal, where she has been awarded with the medals of “Oficial da Ordem do Infante D. Henrique” and “Grande-Oficial da Ordem do Infante D. Henrique”.

Currently, Matos is the Artistic Director of the National Theater of Sao Carlos (Lisbon).
