Delighted to be back with my friend Bartolo in Marriage of Figaro with @theatlantaopera

Great company, cast and crew!
Two performances remain this coming weekend.

📸 by Raftermen for The Atlanta Opera

Meet two legendary voices who are a part our Marriage of Figaro company!

Bass-baritone Patrick Carfizzi and mezzo-soprano Marianne Cornetti have each built extraordinary international careers, appearing on the world’s most prestigious opera stages. Their artistry, depth of experience, and commanding stage presence bring even greater richness to Mozart’s beloved comedy.

See them take the stage later this Month in The Marriage of Figaro!

Over the moon to be back as Sheldon Anapol @metopera

Toi x3 to my incredible colleagues for this historic “back by popular demand” 4 show run.

A celebrated presence on the world’s great opera stages, Patrick Carfizzi returns to San Diego Opera as the wonderfully stubborn Dr. Bartolo. Renowned for his impeccable comic timing and authoritative baritone, Carfizzi is a specialist in Rossini roles, bringing both musical precision and theatrical flair to this beloved character.

“He’s one of a handful of singers we rely upon. He’s the luxury casting the Met is capable of.”
~ Peter Gelb, The Metropolitan Opera

Lovely review from The Boston Musical Intelligencer about my work in Vanessa with @bostonsymphony

“Patrick Carfizzi earned a genuine triumph as the Old Doctor. …his ringingly clear and assertive singing brought an elegant sheen to his role as the aging friend-of-the-family long-time acquaintance who, he proudly claimed, had years ago brought Erika into the world. His inebriated attempts to announce Vanessa and Anatol’s engagement to their houseguests were hilariously believable. Bravo!” by John Ehrlich

Adventures took on a new meaning this past week as I cut short a beach vacation to jump in with @bostonsymphony for Barber’s Vanessa. It had been 20 years since I last cracked the score but in the course of 48 hours it made its way back into my brain and voice.

Wishing Thomas Hampson @thomashampson a speedy recovery!

Thank you BSO, Maestro Nelsons @andrisnelsons and my amazing colleagues for an incredible experience!
