Anthony Roth Costanzo & Bryan Wagorn by Various, to. 21 sep. 2023, Fra (2023/2023), John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Washington D.C., United States

With his hauntingly plangent, immediately recognizable sound and riveting expression, Anthony Roth Costanzo has redefined what it means to be a countertenor star in the 21 st century. Whether inhabiting the title character in the Metropolitan Opera’s Grammy Award-winning production of Philip Glass’ Akhnaten, introducing world premieres of works composed for him by composers including John Corigliano and Gregory Spears at Santa Fe Opera and the New York Philharmonic, or starring in operas by Handel and other Baroque composers worldwide, Costanzo brings stylistic and communicative authenticity to all music he sings.
