Meet superstar tenor Roberto Alagna

Readings Carlton, Woiwurrung Country, 309 Lygon St, Carlton, Victoria, 3053

We are thrilled to have Roberto Alagna, the greatest lyric tenor of today, dropping by our Carlton shop for a special visit on the back of his Australian tour.

Born in a Parisian garage, Alagna’s heart was French and his soul Italian. His Sicilian father sang arias as he worked on building sites and the boy sometimes joined him and sang along. Alagna was born to sing and his voice took him to superstardom. His turbulent romantic life, his born-in-a-garage back story, his accidental discovery by Pavarotti, his heart-throb looks and his heavenly voice have given birth to Alagna’s Army – fervent fans who have bought millions of his albums internationally.

That rarity, a great opera singer who thrills equally in all the genres: cabaret, folk, ethnic and contemporary, Alagna has put charisma and sex appeal back on the libretto, revitalised the operatic world and introduced a new audience to a compelling world of timeless, classic music.
