• MOZART - Don Giovanni

  Los Angeles Opera, LA

  • Rising star Anthony León’s role debut as Don Ottavio was spectacular. In his rendition of “Il Mio Tesoro” (“My Treasure”), a veritable vocal obstacle course, he flawlessly executed every point with a remarkable level of sophistication and grace. His light lyric tenor instrument showed beauty, freedom of tone, and outstanding breath control. León, an LA Opera young artist, has recently won grand prizes in the two of the most prestigious global opera competitions, Operalia and the Metropolitan Opera Laffont competition. While León’s repertoire has so far been wide-ranging (from Baroque to Verdi), the right role choices could launch him into becoming one of the finest lyric tenors tenors of our time, leaving the heavier Verdi and Puccini roles for later in his career.
