Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Australian English Шаблон:Infobox person Greta Bradman (born 1979[1] or 1982)[2] is an Australian operatic soprano.

Career

Richard Bonynge selected Bradman to sing the title role in a concert performance of Handel's Rodelinda in 2014.[3]

Bradman was the subject of two episodes of the ABC TV program Australian Story in 2015.[4] Later that year, she joined David Hobson, Teddy Tahu Rhodes, and Lisa McCune for a concert tour of the five Australian mainland state capitals.[5] Bradman's name was added as a critics' choice to the Walk of Fame at the Adelaide Festival Centre.[6]

After guest presenting in 2016, in 2017 Bradman joined ABC Classic FM as a presenter.[7][8]

2017 saw Bradman's only performance in a fully staged opera as Mimì in Gale Edwards' production of La bohème for Opera Australia in the Sydney Opera House.[9] Bradman – with vocalist Luke Harrison, guitarist Karin Schaupp and the Queensland Ballet – performed "Eliza Aria" from Elena Kats-Chernin's Wild Swans in the 2018 Commonwealth Games closing ceremony.[10]

Bradman sang "Advance Australia Fair" at the state memorial service of Shane Warne in March 2022 at the MCG.[11]

Personal life

Bradman was born in Adelaide as Greta Bradsen. She is a granddaughter, and the eldest grandchild, of cricketer Sir Donald Bradman, at whose funeral she sang in 2001[12] and who inspired her singing.[13] Her father John had changed his name from Bradman to Bradsen to escape the inevitable connection with his father's celebrity, but the family changed back to Bradman when Greta was a teenager.[14] Shortly after her grandfather's death, she struggled with self harm issues.[15]

Her husband is Didier Elzinga, the co-founder and CEO of software company Culture Amp.[16] They have two sons.[1][17][18]

Bradman has a masters degree in Psychology[19] and is a registered psychologist.[20]

In 2015, Bradman was featured in two episodes of the Australian TV series Australian Story, where she appeared along with her father John Bradman and siblings Tom and Nick Bradman.[4]
