PROGRAM OF THE CONCERT
Lawrence Brownlee
is one of the most consistently sought-after artists on the international scene. He is lauded continually for the beauty of his voice, his seemingly effortless technical agility, and his dynamic and engaging dramatic skills.
Mr. Brownlee’s 2011-12 season gives ample demonstration of his eminence as one of our age’s most acclaimed bel canto tenors. In addition to singing six roles by Bellini, Donizetti and Rossini, he also assumes a new one, Nadir in Bizet’s Les pêcheurs de perles, makes twelve company/ensemble debuts and appears in Russia, South Africa and Slovakia for the first time.
Among the highlights of his 2010-11 season were his Opéra National de Paris debut as Lindoro in L’italiana in Algeri, his first Sonnambulas at the Theater St. Gallen, Barbiere for Seattle Opera, Rinaldo in Rossini’s Armida at the Met, Cenerentola with the Canadian Opera Company, etc. Mr. Brownlee’s professional stage debut took place in 2002 as Almaviva in Barbiere with Virginia Opera, a role he subsequently performed on many stages around the world. His other signature roles are tenor parts in Cenerentola, I puritani, Mosé in Egitto; Il turco in Italia, Le Comte Ory, L’elisir d’amore, Armida, Don Pasquale, Fille du regiment and others.
Mr. Brownlee’s discography includes EMI Classics CD release of the Rossini Stabat Mater, with Anna Netrebko, as well as a pair of DVDs: the Met Opera’s 2010 HD relay of Armida on Decca and Carmina Burana with Sir Simon Rattle leading the Berliner Philharmoniker on EuroArts/Opus Arte. Other recent releases include three CD sets centered around the works of Rossini. Deutsche Grammophon released a DVD of the Metropolitan Opera’s 2009 production of La Cenerentola with Elīna Garanča as Angelina and Mr. Brownlee as her Prince. Among his earlier CD releases is his first solo disc (EMI Classics) featuring Italian songs.
