Champion Awards - Janine Roebuck

Champion Awards: Janine RoebuckJanine Roebuck (Opera Singer)

Early in her career as an opera singer, Janine Roebuck became profoundly deaf and was told she could never hope to sing professionally. This news did nothing to hinder her determination to succeed. The Champion Award is presented to Janine for her outstanding musical artistry; for making her talent available to a wide international audience; and for her clear demonstration that there are no limitations to what can be achieved if an artist has outstanding ability, passion, and sheer determination.

Janine Roebuck will sing Puccini’s O Mio Bambino Caro at the AMI Awards 2009.
