Biography
Franco Fagioli is the leading virtuoso counter-tenor of our time. Renowned as much for his artistry as for the beauty of his voice and masterful technique, spanning three octaves, he is the first counter-tenor to sign an exclusive contract with Deutsche Grammophon. The singer’s relationship with the Yellow Label reflects his status as one of the brightest stars of Baroque and early 19th-century bel canto opera. His solo début recording for the company, 'Rossini', with Armonia Atenea and George Petrou, and his album of Handel Arias with Il Pomo d'Oro have won universal critical acclaim. His next album, virtuoso arias by Leonardo Vinci, will be released in 2020. Highlights in his 2019/20 season include Nerone Agrippina for the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden; his début for the Teatro Re
