L’ELISIR D’AMORE (Nemorino)

(Los Angeles Opera)

“Giuseppe Filianoti’s lyric tenor has a distinctive Italianate timbre that renders it unique.”

Carie J Delmar, Opera Online, September 16, 2009

“Filianoti combines physical stature (strength, not girth) with a fresh face, a light touch and a powerfully gentle voice; his ‘Una furtive lagrima’ in the second act was pure and beautiful. The words that come to mind: staying power.”

Tom Christie, LA Weekly, September 15, 2009

“Filianoti is a true Italian tenor, and if his voice takes on a deeper hue as he matures he might well end up the Corelli for our time.”
