The Peruvian tenor Juan Diego Flórez will perform a concert of opera arias together with the RTV Slovenia Symphony Orchestra. Following his father’s example, he first performed as a singer of popular and Peruvian music, then as a scholarship-holder he began his studies as an opera singer in Philadelphia before moving on to Italy. At the age of 23, Flórez made his first professional performance at the Rossini Opera Festival in Pesaro, which led to another debut that year in the opening of La Scala’s 1996/97 season. He has recorded a number of albums, numerous solo albums, as well as complete operas on CD and DVD, and has received through his career numerous accolades and awards. The performance will be directed by Ukrainian conductor Oksana Lyniv, who became the first female conductor on the stage of Wagner’s Festival Theatre in Bayreuth. Her interpretations are described as being precise, temperamental, and displaying an inspiring depth of musical understanding. Lyniv is currently music director of Teatro Comunale Bologna and its orchestra. She is regularly conducting orchestras such as the Munich Philharmonic, Wiener Symphoniker, the Berlin Philharmonic among others.
