A friend and I attended The Opera Orchestra of New York’s performance of I Lombardi at Avery Fisher Hall last night. The concert was fine but I was blown away by tenor Michael Fabiano. His performance was absolutely and thrillingly goose bump inducing. I so look forward to seeing him in the new production of Die Fledermaus next season at the Met. I wish I could go to the Netherlands to see him do Faust but, alas, my plane is in the shop.
Mark my words, if Fabiano continues singing as I heard him last night, he will be a big huge star. Which is great news as, god knows, we need more electrifying singers and goose bump inducing singing.
I’m still buzzing from his performance.
