About
Rolando Villazón needs no introduction. More than just a great singer, he is also an incredibly appealing man who charms audiences time after time with his hugely popular appearances. We are quite certain that this “portrait” concert will delight his fans once again! The Franco-Mexican tenor will relish singing his favourite composers – Mozart, Verdi, and Massenet – but he will also perform zarzuelas and canzoni napoletane, from the colourful repertoire which he champions so enthusiastically.
