Marcello Giordani has been hailed by the international press as one of the most important tenors on the opera stage today. He has appeared in all of the world’s major opera houses and has sung with many of today’s most renowned conductors.

His exceptional versatility and vocal range have allowed him to encompass a vast repertory, from the Bel Canto operas of Rossini, Donizetti, and Bellini and the lyricism of the French operatic repertoire, to the more dramatic roles of Verdi, Puccini, Berlioz, and most recently, the popular Verismo operas of Mascagni and Leoncavallo.

Please call the Vero Beach Opera at (772) 569-6993, Tania Ortega-Cowan at (772) 532-6793, or visit the website at www.VeroBeachOpera.org for more information about these events.
