Placido Domingo Awards Dinner Honors Juan Diego Florez
From the LA Times"
Digressing from his prepared remarks, Domingo said he has been singing opera for 50 years, beginning as Borsa in "Rigoletto" at the National Opera in Mexico City. "You can imagine how many singers I have heard," he said, before launching into praise for Flórez for "the beauty of his voice, the ability of his coloratura, his great personality and the amazing height of the high notes."

Juan Diego Florez, 'Barber of Seville', Rossini, Los Angeles, December 2009
First reviews for Barber of Seville at LA Opera are in:
From the LA Times
"The big draw is Juan Diego Flórez (he of the high Cs), making his debut in an L.A. Opera production. As the Count, who disguises himself in order to win the ward of an overbearing lecherous old doctor, the Peruvian tenor goes through his many escapades tossing off vocal flourishes left and right as he athletically covers the stage and hops on tables. His sensationally versatile voice is on the slender side for the Chandler, but his arias brought down the house."

From Concerto Net
Making his Los Angeles Opera debut is Peruvian Juan Diego Flórez as the dashing and mischievous Count Almaviva. He has it all: good looks, incredible acting, and, most of all, a buttery tenor voice. His meticulousness is sung in every note, and it is executed with such rapid clarity, most clearly demonstrated in the oft omitted aria in Act II, “Cessa di più resistere”. It is no wonder that Juan Diego Flórez is justifiably today’s “king” of bel canto.
