彼得．馬替 演唱著名男中音歌劇名曲 Mattei, Peter: Great Baritone Arias

The Swedish baritone Peter Mattei has made a formidable reputation for himself performing at the
most prestigious opera houses in the world: the Metropolitan, Teatro alla Scala and Covent Garden,
to mention but a few. He first came to the attention of an international audience when Peter Brook
selected him as his Don Giovanni, for an Aix-en-Provence production which was later filmed.
Something of a 'director's opera singer', Mattei has also worked with Ingmar Bergman, Michael
Haneke and Patrice Chereau, and regularly astounds audiences with his exceptional acting skills,
coupled as they are with a voice of rare beauty. In the recording studio he is, however, a more
rarely seen guest. On this his first and long-awaited disc of arias, he revels in the rich opportunities
offered by the baritone literature, performing a selection of his favourite arias and roles. Lovelorn
young men and cynical libertines, friends faithful unto death and innocent victims of oppression –
all of these are brought to life as one of today's finest operatic baritones displays his entire range
with the eminent support of the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra and Lawrence Renes
on the podium.
