Freddie De Tommaso is a young British tenor whose stratospheric rise in the opera world has caught the attention of music lovers worldwide. This native Italian seems to have opera in his blood. With his powerful voice and warm timbre, he effortlessly captures the essence of verismo, which demands both technical skill and emotional expression.
