Featured Artist
Hailed as an extraordinarily versatile artist, Giordani’s repertory encompasses a wide and diverse range of roles, a list that spans the gamut from the Bel Canto heroes of Donizetti and Bellini to the more dramatic roles of Verdi and Puccini.
In demand by the world’s major opera houses and symphony orchestras, Giordani opened the Metropolitan Opera’s 2006-07 season singing Pinkerton in the company’s new production of Madama Butterfly directed by Anthony Minghella. It was the first time in 20 years that the Met opened its season with a new production.
