Ricardo Crampton performing Count in Le Nozze di Figaro

Ricardo Crampton and the Teatro Carlo Felice

In January, we introduced readers to 30-year-old Argentinian barihunk Ricardo Crampton. He's currently performing the Count in Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro at the Teatro Carlo Felice, which live streamed a performance of the opera on March 14th. Fortunately, we have audio of his performance of "Hai già vinta la causa"

Ricardo Crampton sings "Hai già vinta la causa":  

There is a performance today with an alternate cast, but Crampton has one remaining performance on March 18th. He'll be returning to his native Argentina to perform Gounod's Roméo et Juliette at the Buenos Aires Lirica from October 17-25.

Figaro! Figaro! Figaro!

Oops, not the Rossini Figaro. But if you're looking to see two of the hottest Figaro's in Mozart's classic opera, now is the time. Mariusz Kwiecien is at the Lyric Opera of Chicago and Erwin Schrott is at the Bayerische Staatsoper in Munich. Both of these barihunks are known for injecting sexuality into a role that in the hands of some baritones can be a little wooden.

Those attending the opera in Chicago get the added bonus of Kyle Ketelsen as the Count.
