Biography
French opera singer Roberto Alagna is of Sicilian heritage and is one of three brothers born to Italian parents living in France. He began his singing career performing in Parisian cabaret before switching his attention to opera and developing his craft as a tenor. After winning the Luciano Pavarotti International Voice Competition, Alagna was offered a role in 'La Traviata', playing the character Alfred Germont in a Glyndebourne production. It proved to be the pivotal break in the artist's career and he was soon booked for appearances at venues such as La Scala and the Metropolitan Opera. In 1994 he played Romeo opposite Leonitsa Vaduva in a series of critically acclaimed performances at Covent Garden cementing his reputation as an international opera star. Although known for his performances in the great Italian operas, in recent years Alagna has championed the cause of lesser-known French operas. Despite his stature within the world of opera Alagna remains an enigmatic and mercurial character sometimes prone to emotional outbursts which have led to occasional criticism from promoters and audiences. Nonetheless he remains an A-list tenor and a favourite amongst international audiences appearing in over 40 operatic roles and releasing over 20 albums, most recently his tribute to Neapolitan tenor Enrico Caruso entitled 'Caruso 1873' (2019), in a career spanning two decades.
