How do you sweep the public and the music critics off their feet at the age of thirty? By becoming an opera star in two seasons thanks to a countertenor voice and a break-dancer’s physique! This is undoubtedly one of the fastest and most astonishing achievements in classical music, highlighting the baroque repertoire.
There is no doubt that in this display of virtuosity and sensitivity, which were the two exceptional qualities of the castrati, Orliński is a master!
