Stéphane Victor, tenor soloist for Mozart’s Requiem on the 27th of November 2016

Stéphane Victor has been a lyrical artist and tenor soloist for several years. He actually discovered the art of classical singing in an amateur choir back in 2004 and found himself as the choir’s soloist the very first year.
He enrolled with the Bordeaux Conservatory to study the lyrical arts with Maryse Castets and graduated in 2014. Stéphane has always had a special liking for oratorios, the Baroque and “Bel Canto” and regularly performs extracts from operas – Verdi’s Traviata (Alfredo), Poulenc’s “Le Dialogue des Carmélites” (Chevalier), Rossini’s “The Barber of Seville” (Almaviva), Donizetti and a number of operettas (Offenbach and Hahn). Ever since, a number of projects have kept him busy singing a whole range of works from the Renaissance period to the Baroque, plus a number of contemporary works, performing with an equally impressive suite of conductors: Alexis Duffaure, Youlia Brown, Eduardo Lopez, Françoise Richard, Michel Laplénie, Bruno Ricaud, Alexander Martin and Jacques Charpentier. He recently performed with the “Opéra Bastide” company (conducted by Lionel Sarrazin) in Massenet’s “Werther” and the role of Schmidt, and last December he sang in a tribute concert to Luis Mariano with the Harmonie de Bordeaux orchestra. In March he starred as Tonio in Donizetti’s “Regiment Girl” in Guadeloupe and in May he was back again with the Opéra Bastide in Monteverdi’s “The Crowning of Poppaea” and the role of Arnalta and Lucano. On the 21st of June he will be giving a recital at the Bordeaux Auditorium at the Conservatory of Bordeaux’s graduate ceremony.
