“The perfect casting” wrote Opera Magazine about Jakub Józef Orlinski’s interpretation of Orfeo in San Francisco. The Polish countertenor is tailor-made for the character of the mythical singer. Orfeo quickly developed into one of his signature roles, which Jakub Józef Orlinski has embodied in various productions around the world. Now the countertenor himself is releasing a recording of Gluck’s Orfeo & Euridice – as producer, casting director, artistic co-director (alongside conductor Stefan Plewniak) and, of course, interpreter of the main role.

“One of my big dreams as a student was the role of Orfeo,” confesses Jakub Józef Orlinski, “when I read the myth for the first time, my imagination went crazy, I saw images like those of Hieronymus Bosch before my eyes.” Performances in other people’s productions strengthened the singer’s desire to realize his very own vision of the myth: “It’s not easy to take on such a famous musical work. But I had a clear vision of what I wanted to do with it and how I would realize it”.

For his dream cast, Jakub Józef Orlinski recruited the young sopranos Elsa Dreisig as Euridice and Fatma Said as Amore, both winners of the OPUS KLASSIK. The original sound ensemble Il Giardino d’Amore will accompany them under the direction of Stefan Plewniak. The conductor has been Jakub Józef Orlinski’s “partner in crime” for many years.
