Opera singer

Free lance

I fell in love with opera when I was a child and later had the chance to tour the world, singing here and there — from Italy to New Zealand, Canada, and Japan.

Ensemble member
Theater St. Gallen

I have been a tenor at Theater St. Gallen since 2008. Switzerland has truly become my second home — a place where I feel welcomed, inspired, and artistically alive. Here, I have the joy of bringing a touch of Italian creativity and the tradition of bel canto to a country rich in opportunities and open to those who live for the stage.

Singing teacher

Free lance

In my forties, I felt it was time to share with younger generations all that life on stage had given me — the lessons, the stories, and the inspiration I received from the great singers, conductors, and directors who crossed my path.
