What can you say about Juan Diego Flórez that hasn't already been said? His position as bel canto king is rather undisputed (but watch out JDF, Lawrence Brownlee is showing some mad skills...)? For those who haven't had the Flórez-experience, what often strikes us as surprising is the lightness of his tenor. However, despite the less than epic volume of his instrument, his technical skill is unmatched. With Le Comte, JDF gave us his gorgeous and elegant legato throughout the evening, accented by his virtuoso coloratura. Still, what makes a JDF experience fun is the actor behind the singer. The man fearlessly throws himself behind his work. Here, those moments were occassionally a bit corny, but more often than not, they simply made us adore the man that much more.
