There is something inherently sexy about the baritone voice, its masculinity, its stamina, its imperative, aristocratic way of getting things done. Add a French touch to all that and the sexiness becomes stylish, romantic and intellectual. Ludovic Tézier embodies the great tradition of French baritones, with their soaring high notes and their brooding, poetic nobility. As the only male voice in the Grand Théâtre de Genève recital season, Ludovic Tézier’s programme of art songs will fill the house with the ineffable charm of a great French singer.
