Hro'que - French Opera Arias
This recital, Heroique, is American tenor Bryan Hymel's first studio recording for Warner Classics. One of the opera world's fastest-rising stars, Hymel was the winner of the 2013 Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in Opera for his trio of performances in Les Troyens, Robert le Diable and Rusalka at London's Royal Opera House. The New York Times praised his ""unflagging stamina and impetuous abandon"" during his 2012 Metropolitan Opera debut as Enee in Les Troyens, for which he was presented with the Metropolitan Opera's Beverly Sills Artist Award. This album's program showcases him in repertoire that he has been making his own on stages such as the Met, Covent Garden and the Bavarian State Opera: opera in French that demands a thrilling heroism in both voice and style - and a top register of outstanding brilliance, since the album offers a grand total of 19 top C's.
