Juan Diego Flórez is the "tenor currently drawing the most buzz," says npr.com. |
Juan Diego Flórez "is 'the current bel canto tenor of choice, with amazing fluidity, a beautiful sound and a virile edge that few bel canto tenors command," wrote T. Hashimoto for the San Francisco Examiner in a review of a Nightingale Classics recording of Rossini's Semiramide. As to Edita Gruverova, who sings the title role in the recording, he says, "Semiramide, the nutsy queen of Babylon, is sung by Gruberova with that magisterial, incisive edge that you either love (I do) or you hate . . .." The recording can be ordered from amazon.com. |
