Juan Diego Florez

L'amour Juan Diego Florez

Marking a a departure for the Peruvian bel canto superstar, this new recording offers a personal survey of the French operatic repertoire from Donizetti to the romantic outpourings of Gounod and Massenet. This is a disc that not only plays to Flórez’s strengths – virtuosic and high-lying – but also shows a new side to the popular singer, featuring repertoire which he has rarely sung on stage. The first solo album in four years by one of the Classical world’s biggest stars reveals a voice which has has mellowed and gained more body; the choice of repertoire draws further new colours from this ever-stylish tenor.
