Stanford University

Riveting Polish countertenor Jakub Józef Orliński is among today’s most sought-after singers, celebrated for his beauty of tone and an uncommon unity of color and polish across his vocal range. Last season he made a thrilling company debut as Orpheus at San Francisco Opera, a performance praised by the San Francisco Chronicle as “radiant and magical,” and he has sung with many of the world’s most esteemed early-music groups. Orliński returns to Berkeley this season with the sensational ensemble Il Pomo d’Oro, in a program of rarely performed works from the 16th and 17th centuries—by Monteverdi, Caccini, Frescobaldi, Cavalli, Strozzi, and others. Orliński’s last Cal Performances recital sold out—with audiences demanding multiple encores—so don’t miss this opportunity to hear a true star at the height of his artistry.!

Samoan Pene Pati follows in the footsteps of the greatest tenors of the last century by dedicating a recital to the Neapolitan song genre. This genre is closely linked to the history of the southern Italian city, where it is often said that music and dance run in the blood of its inhabitants. These are most often love laments or serenades traditionally written for male voices and sung in the Neapolitan dialect. The greatest operatic artists have succumbed to them, from Placido Domingo to José Carreras, from Luciano Pavarotti to Roberto Alagna. The radiant Pene Pati is thus invited to the table of the greatest, and there is no doubt that he will shine there in his turn.
