Radu Marian

Radu Marian ( * 1977 in the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic, USSR ) is a Moldovan male soprano. He has a natural - not generated by Falsetto - soprano voice with a tessitura from middle C to three -painted, which is particularly suitable for the interpretation of Baroque music. Marian is like a " endocrinological castrato ", by hormonal circumstances he never came in the vocal break.

Marian comes from a family of artists. His prodigious musical talent was already evident in the Seven Years' when he in French, the second aria of the Queen of the Night ( The vengeance of Hell boils in my heart ) from Mozart's opera The Magic Flute was able to interpret. His vocal and music studies (piano) Marian put on in Moscow and at the Music Academy in Bucharest and received his concert diploma with distinction.

Marian received a scholarship from the state and Moldova received under Flavio Colusso secondary education in Italy. His repertoire includes cantatas were written for sopranos, such as by George Frideric Handel, Giovanni Battista Bononcini, Carissimi Giacomo Girolamo Frescobaldi and, in addition, but also the repertoire of the actual castrato. The well-known conductor and Baroque specialist Flavio Colusso notes that Radu Marian is a soprano whose voice sounds completely different from those of counter tenors and sopranos.
