Werther

I usually don't like classic operas with modernized production and costumes. This one is an exception. The modernized twist is made to fit the story very well and makes watching this opera very enjoyable. Alagna as Orphee does a great job and and is more realistic than a female singer in the role. His impeccable french is an added bonus for french speakers like me. This is the version of this opera that you would want to watch without getting bored

With Oh la la, Alagna!, in this 2013 concert, Roberto Alagna, the most eclectic of tenors, invites us to discover his extra-lyrical universe, that of his origins, which bring him closer to his passion for popular song. From Sicily to Little Italy, this compilation features more than twenty songs that have marked the artist's career. With the collaboration of famous musical directors such as Yvan Cassar and Frédéric Manoukian and their orchestras, Roberto Alagna performs his favorite songs, some festive, some moving, such as Mambo Italiano, Piensa en mi, and Mexico.
