Search - Lawrence Brownlee :: Allegro io son

Tenor Lawrence Brownlee is largely considered by critics and audiences alike to be the worlds leading bel canto tenor. His previous release on Delos was an enchanting array of Rossini arias which garnered him a Grammy nomination. Brownlee has a rich and varied repertoire, which is evident on this release. He has mixed standards such as Donizettis Don Pasquale, and Lelisir damore and Bellinis I Puritani with lesser-performed pieces like Donizettis Rita and La Favorite. For this release, as in his previous, Brownlee is joined by Lithuanias Kaunas City Symphony Orchestra and the Kaunas State Choir. The brilliant interpretations and sensitive reading from conductor Constantine Orbelian lend themselves beautifully to Brownlees impeccable voice.
