Performance Notes | World-famous tenor Juan Diego Flórez will return to the Royal Albert Hall in 2017, joined by Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra and conductor Lorenzo Viotti.
Flórez made his Royal Albert Hall solo headline debut in 2012 as part of the Rosenblatt Recitals. Following in the footsteps of Pavarotti and Carreras, Flórez became one of the few great tenors to appear in a solo recital at the Hall, with The Guardian proclaiming that his superstar status cannot be far off.
Recognised as one of greatest tenors in history, the Peruvian tenor has appeared at all the worlds leading opera houses, concert halls and music festivals, including the iconic Last Night of the Proms concert in 2016. He has received numerous accolades and awards, including Perus highest distinction, the Gran Cruz de la Orden del Sol. He is a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador, and in 2011 founded the Sinfonia por el Perú, an inclusive social project which runs orchestra and choir workshops for underprivileged youth.
Fine dining tickets were available for £199 per person which included champagne, meal in the Coda restaurant, beverages, premium Stalls seat and a souvenir programme. Box Hospitality tickets were available for £2,072 (Loggia Box) an £1,036 (Second Tier Box), which included exclusive box hire, champagne, beverages, canapes, and dedicated waiter.
The event was filmed for the artist's archive.
The performance finish time was delayed as Juan Diego added two more encore pieces to the repertoire list in response to the very reactive audience who enjoyed every moment and gave a standing ovation. Juan Diego left via Stage Door to meet fans. |
