Is it really possible to have too much talent? With Philippe Jaroussky, one is almost tempted to answer this question with yes: after all, there seems to be hardly a musical discipline that he has not mastered. The Frenchman studied piano and violin, harmony and composition. Along the way, he discovered his singing talent and has been making a world career as a countertenor ever since. He also founded his own ensemble, is already planning his next career as a conductor and teaches talented young musicians in his own academy. The fact that he also has time to dig up forgotten masterpieces in archives is hardly surprising.

Jaroussky is now making a guest appearance at the Elbphilharmonie with a program of such rediscoveries, including works by Niccolò Jommelli and Johann Christian Bach. Too much talent? Perhaps – but at the latest when Jaroussky strikes up the first aria with a silvery, shimmering voice, no one will complain about it.
