His elegance, technical virtuosity and the beauty of his high notes attract plaudits. Peruvian tenor Juan Diego Flórez made his debut at the age of twenty-three at the Rossini Festival in Pesaro, and has since performed to acclaim on all the major international stages. Works by Bellini and Donizetti are his core repertoire. This evening, he is taking us into different territory with Gluck, Mozart and Handel, while not forgetting his favourite, Rossini.
