Emma Shapplin started her music career in classical music but then moved to hard rock. When she was 18, singer Jean-Patrick Capdevielle convinced her to to return to taking classical lessons so as to improve her singing technique. She discovered that although rock had given her more artistic freedom and hedonistic lifestyle than classical music, it was still not enough for her, so she decided to create her own style.[3] This became a combination of archaic opera and modern trance and folk traditional scottish and/or pop music. Shapplin and Capdevielle subsequently worked together on her first release, Carmine Meo. Capdevielle wrote Carmine Meo as the first part of an Atlantis themed opera, Atylantos, whose 2001 staging and CD release promoted the careers of four other gifted young singers: the French sopranos Chiara Zeffirelli and Jade Laura D’angelis, the Romanian soprano Elena Cojocaru, and the French tenor Nikola Todoravitch.
Although Shapplin was raised speaking French, and sings some of her songs in that language, most of the songs on Carmine Meo were translated from the French in which Capdevielle wrote them into Latin and ancient Provençal dialect, in which Shapplin sang them.[6] On her second release, Etterna, she decided to perform in old (13th-century) Italian. She did so because, according to her, "It's a language that sings naturally"; and because this is closer to the modern Italian language she used in some of her first classical singing lessons, while the older Italian "lends itself more to poetry, to dreaming, and to drama too". In particular, she used the spelling "Etterna" for the album and track title because this is the way Dante wrote, rather than the modern Italian "Eterna". She occasionally performs one of her hit songs, La Notte Etterna, in Spanish (as La Noche Eterna). Her single "Discovering Yourself" is in English.
Shapplin was relatively unknown in the United States until composer Graeme Revell used her voice on his score for the movie Red Planet. They later collaborated on her second album Etterna, with Revell producing all of her songs. That album was written in breach of her contract with Pendragon Records, which owns the trademark "Emma Shapplin" and had a six-record contract with the singer.
