Reader Submission: Gustavo Feulien

Gustavo Feulien

Baritone Gustavo Feulien made his operatic debut as Don Giovanni in his native Argentina, where he also performed Germont in “La Traviata” and Figaro in “Il Barbiere di Siviglia,” Haly in “L’Italiana in Algieri,” and Il Marito in “Amelia al ball.” He performed leading roles in “Traviata” and “Rigoletto” in concerts throughout Argentina as part of the Teatro Colón, making his debut in “Carmina Burana.” Montserrat Caballé chose him to perform at her Voices Concert in Spain. He has also sung Di Luna in “Il Trovatore” and Marullo in “Rigoletto.”

A first-prize winner at the Il Trovatore International Competition in Argentina, he was also a semifinalist in the Hans Gabor Belvedere International and the Francisco Viñas competitions, and a finalist in Caballé's International Vocal Competition. Feulien completed music courses at the Julian Aguirre Conservatory and continued his studies at the Instituto Superior de Arte del Teatro Colón in his hometown of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

We were hoping to post a video, but the YouTube site featuring Feulien has video sharing disabled.  You can click HERE to watch him sing "Eri tu" from Verdi's "Un Ball in maschera."

Reader Submission: Lisandro Abadie

Lisandro Abadie

When we received an email touting a barihunk who excels at early music, it immediately caught our attention. We had not heard of Argentinian born barihunk Lisandro Abadie, but we were instantly impressed with his singing. Abadie was a finalist in the 2008 Handel Singing Competition and won the Edwin Fischer Genedkpreis two years earlier.

 

After studying in Luzerne, he has forged a successful career singing music primarily by Bach, Handel, Rameau, Mozart, Pergolesi, Purcell, but also by a handful of contemporary composers. 

Here is an amazing performance of Lucifero's rousing aria "Caddi, e ver" from Handel's "Le Resurrezione":

 

You can also hear him sing Henry Purcell's "Let Each Gallant Heart" by clicking HERE.
