Rosenblatt Recitals

Dimitri Platanias tenor
Gary Matthewman piano

Formerly a classical guitarist, powerful Greek baritone Dimitri Platanias made the successful switch to opera singer in 2000, impressing audiences across Europe. Platanias burst onto the UK scene in 2012 with a stunning Royal Opera House debut in the title role of Verdi’s Rigoletto. Praised for his ‘gloriously sustained tone and line… thrilling power… [and] bags of character’ (The Times), Rosenblatt Recitals are delighted to welcome Dimitri for his London recital debut, rounding off their 13-14 season.
