Six Famous Male Opera Singers

By Ronald Richardson


Nowadays, the music had been evolving and many people are now listening more on to pop music. However, humans should still not sleep on other genres too. Just like opera music, more likely it has less population of listeners. Perhaps you have no idea of some musicians catering to that. But this article will provide you famous male singers with golden voices. Perhaps you have known others. Nevertheless, knowing them might surely enthuse you about classical opera singers.

Placido Domingo. He is a Spanish opera singer who is also a conductor and an administrator in arts. Predominantly, his singing voice was in spinto and then he shifted into dramatic tenor. He is best known for his Don Jose, Canio, Cavaradossi and Hoffman. Aside from that, he had won fourteen Latin Grammy and Grammy awards and had collaborated with Jose Carreras and Luciano Pavarotti as The Three Tenors.

Dmitri Hvorostovsky. Not only his striking looks will astound you but also baritone voice which made him worldwide famous. Dmitri is a Russian artist and his international debut started in 1989 for he won a competition and beat another famous opera singer. The Peoples magazine has also included him in the rankings of most beautiful people. He also made a collaboration with Renee Fleming in Eugene which became one of his best acts.

Jose Carreras. Jose, a Spanish artist with a beautiful tenor voice, is noted for his performances from Puccini and Verdi. At the age of eleven, he started his operatic stage career then performed more than sixty roles and became famous particularly when he joined The Three Tenors alongside with Luciano Pavarotti and Placido Domingo. He had gained many awards from his career as well as humanitarian works.

Luciano Pavorotti. Luciano is one of the most successful operatic tenors of all time. He was an Italian artist who gained the title King of High Cs in twentieth century. He as well is part of Three Tenors and had helped in expanding the opera music throughout the world. He also had some collaborations with famous artists outside from this genre and received an award from Red Cross.

Andrea Bocelli. According to Celine Dion, if the Heavenly Father can speak to humans, his voice will be like Andrea Bocelli. No one can blame her from saying that because he indeed has a beautiful voice. Despite his blindness, he made a history in classical crossover music for becoming the biggest-selling singer.

Lawrence Brownlee. Lawrence is an American tenor who got several positive reviews from both audiences and musicians from his voice. He also got praise from his performance in Armida together with Renee Fleming and his several engagement with Metropolitan Opera. His best works includes his performance in La Centerola in which Elina Garanca is part of that.

Philippe Jaroussky. So have you heard a male with mezzo soprano voice? Probably not, but Philippe is an example of that. You might cringe at hearing boys doing some high notes but this guy has perfect technique, making him sound beautiful. He has been doing many operas which proves the versatility of his voice.

Who says only females can hit high notes? Males can also do that. With these fellows, the opera genre still remains.
