Opera Australia – Freddie De Tommaso: Il Tenore in Concert

Freddie De Tommaso

Presented by Opera Australia

Details

One of the world’s most exciting new tenors makes his Australian debut.

Freddie De Tommaso shot to fame in December 2021, when he jumped into the principal role of Cavaradossi in Tosca at London’s Royal Opera House. At 28, he became the youngest singer to ever perform the role on the iconic stage.

In the years since, the British-Italian tenor has cemented his place at the very top of the operatic world, with performances at Europe’s most prestigious opera houses.

Performing in Melbourne for the first time, this is your chance to hear the young tenor praised as a ‘vocal phenomenon’ and one of the greatest opera singers working in the Italian tradition.

See for yourself why De Tommaso is winning plaudits and fans the world over in this historic Australian debut.
