Gianluca Margheri's shirtless Don Giovanni; Returning to Giulianova

Gianluca Margheri in Luglio Musicale Trapanese's "Don Giovanni" and giving and interview
Italian barihunk Gianluca Margheri has quickly established himself as one of the most seductive and sexy Don Giovanni's on the operatic stage today.  Readers may recall his searingly hot Don at Zomeropera, which we covered, as well as his performances with the Hungarian State Opera. He just wrapped up two more performances with the Ente Luglio Musicale Trapanese that were met with great critical acclaim and audience enthusiasm. Once again, he was asked by the director to show off his amazing chest, which certainly makes one believe that he had 640 conquests in Italy, 231 in Germany, a 100 in France, 91 in Turkey, and 1,003 in Spain.

Gianluca Margheri sings "Deh vieni alla finestra" with Zomeropera:

He now returns to Giulianova, Italy to perform with La Rocca Barocca, where he sang Handel's Aci, Galatea e Polifemo in 2014, Vivaldi's La Senna festeggiante in 2013 and Purcell's Dido & Aeneas in 2012. This season he'll perform in Handel's Apollo e Dafne on August 13th.

Gianluca Margheri performs Handel's Aci, Galatea e Polifemo

Gianluca Margheri
Gianluca Margheri, who will be featured in our 2014 Barihunks calendar, can be seen on August 24th in Handel's Aci, Galatea e Polifemo. The dramatic cantata, with an Italian libretto by Nicola Giuvo, has a plot almost identical to Handel's later English-language pastoral opera Acis and Galatea.

The performances will be with La Rocca Barocca in the coastal town of Giulianova in Italy.
