A star in the countertenor world, Franco Fagioli stands out for the quality of his interpretations, the beauty of his voice and the excellence of his technique, which allows him to span three octaves. Highlights of his 2021/22 season include: Arsace in Handel’s Partenope in his debut at the Teatro Real in Madrid (where he has already been invited back for Achille in Sciro and Mitridate, re di Ponto), Nerone in Agrippina at the Hamburg Staatsoper, and his participation in a new production of Giulio Cesare at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées. He has also recorded Mozart arias with the Kammerorchester Basel and will tour Europe with this program. In the future, Franco Fagioli will take part in a new production of Alessandro nell’Indie at the Bayreuth Baroque Festival, will tour Ariodante with Il Pomo d’Oro, and will conduct various projects around the “last castrato” Giovanni Velluti.
