They’re two of opera’s hottest rising stars. Bolivian soprano Shelén Hughes Camacho and American baritone Joseph Parrish have impressed audiences and competition juries around the globe, with their “elegance and eloquence” (Seen and Heard International) and “arresting stage presence” (Opera News). Now, these two young vocalists make their Cliburn Concerts debut with an eclectic program spanning spirituals, opera, art song, musical theater, and pop music, accompanied by pianist Amir Farid. Don’t miss this one-night performance by these extraordinary young artists —partners on and off the stage— on the brink of stardom.

Opera Rara launches its 55th Season with a Salon Concert on Friday 10 October 2025 with Argentinean baritone Germán Enrique Alcántara and pianist Anna Tilbrook in partnership with Temple Music Foundation. Enjoy an evening of little-known songs by Gaetano Donizetti (1797-1848) side by side with those of Argentinean composers Juan Pedro Esnaola (1808-1878), Julián Aguirre (1868-1924), Carlos López Buchardo (1881-1948), Celia Torrá (1889-1962), Alberto Williams (1862-1952) and Ana Carrique (1886-1978).

A graduate of the Royal Ballet and Opera’s Jette Parker Young Artist Programme, Alcántara made his Opera Rara debut as Simon Boccanegra in the charity’s revival of the original 1857 version of Verdi’s opera with The Hallé and Sir Mark Elder. Many of the rare Argentinian songs he has chosen for this evening will have their UK premiere in this concert.

Taking place in the splendid Middle Temple Hall, where Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night was first performed, the evening will end with a post-concert reception with the artists – a perfect opportunity to meet the artists and make new friends!
