Two of today’s foremost tenors, Lawrence Brownlee and Michael Spyres, come together for a sensational program of Rossini in Amici e Rivali ("Friends and Rivals"), with I Virtuosi Italiani and conductor Corrado Rovaris. Discover: https://w.lnk.to/aerLY

"The duets that Rossini wrote for very different tenors precisely highlight our vocal strengths," says Michael. "Larry’s voice is a natural tenor voice and the clarity, beauty, and virtuosity of his singing come through abundantly in this repertoire. Conversely, I began as a baritone and my natural voice lies much lower – almost everyone asks if I am a baritone when they hear my speaking voice!"

One tenor is good, two tenors are even better! Lawrence Brownlee and Michael Spyres, opulent singers and great Rossini experts, share the stage for an exceptional evening in which masterpieces from the Italian bel canto repertoire will be performed alongside some of the finest works of French verism. After a first half devoted exclusively to Rossini, which promises to be a delight, the singers will showcase the expressive power of Bizet and Meyerbeer, not forgetting the greats – Verdi and Donizetti. This programme is skilfully designed to allow the sensational virtuosity of these two star tenors to shine as they spark off each other.
