Хуан Антонио Санабрия

A tenor from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Juan Antonio Sanabria came to the stage by way of vocal pedagogy, studying with María Orán, Juan Lomba and Elena de Miguel. The prizes followed — the María Orán Prize, a distinction at the Jacinto Guerrero competition, first prize at Clermont-Ferrand. His operatic debut came in Pagliacci in 2006, and the repertoire he has built since runs from Mozart, Haydn and Cimarosa through Rossini and Donizetti to Wagner and Richard Strauss, with a parallel concert life in Bach, Handel, Beethoven and Berlioz. His studies took in masterclasses with Tom Krause, Wessela Zlateva and Miguel Zanetti, the Pagliacci debut was given at the Las Palmas opera festival, and the Clermont-Ferrand prize came in 2009. He has recorded Luisa Fernanda and La conquista de Granada for Deutsche Grammophon.
