Two Rossini roles in the same opera — Fiorello first, Figaro later — is the ordinary shape of an ensemble career: you get the small part in a production before you get the title one.

Concert work

The oratorio and concert side is concentrated in 2019 and the cancelled 2020 season:

  • Carmina Burana, Orff — Royal Albert Hall and Cambridge Philharmonic (plus several 2020 dates, cancelled)
  • Messiah, Handel — conducted by John Lubbock (plus 2020 dates, cancelled)
  • Messa di Gloria, Puccini — Coventry Cathedral
  • Cantata 140, Wachet auf, Bach
  • Mass in A♭, Schubert
  • German Requiem, Brahms — 2020, cancelled
  • Nelson Mass, Haydn / The King Shall Rejoice, Handel — 2020, cancelled
  • Requiem, Fauré / Pour les funérailles d’un soldat, Boulanger — 2020, cancelled

Not only singing

Four dates are listed as Musical Director / Arranger / Singer / Woodwind for Swinging Christmas. The biography explains the combination: a semi-professional clarinettist who still plays with orchestras and chamber groups, has written arrangements performed by the Düsseldorfer Symphoniker, and in the house’s staged Christmas Oratorio appeared as an on-stage instrumentalist playing clarinet obbligati — including one in his own arrangement — as well as singing.
