Born in Fiesole in 1980, Filippo Adami graduated with distinction at the Florence Cherubini Conservatorio. As a specialist in Rossini he has undertaken many leading rôles in operas by this composer and his contemporaries. His repertoire also extends back to earlier periods, and includes Monteverdi’s L’incoronazione di Poppea, Scarlatti’s oratorio Il giardino delle rose, Handel’s Fernando, Rodelinda and Il trionfo del tempo e del disinganno, Cavalli’s Il Giasone, Galuppi’s L’Olimpiade and L’inimico delle donne, and Vivaldi’s Ercole sul Termodonte, the last performed in Kraków, Vienna and Paris, under Fabio Bondi.
