Manage episode 274142702 series 2761597
Tenor Fabián Arciniegas joins us today from Cobourg ON, where he makes his home with his wife and two children. Fabián is a charming and animated person and his joie de vivre shines through in speaking with him!
Fabián tells us about his journey from Cali, Colombia to Canada, where he continued his voice studies at U of T in their Opera Performance program. It's interesting to know that he started out wanting to sing Rock & Pop music! He went from a Baritone to a Tenor and this in itself was a journey as well. Fabián has a voice studio in Cobourg, where he says he absolutely loves teaching.
When asked whether he sings to live, or lives to sing, his reply is not surprising ~ "Even if I cannot sing for people, I would have to make noise for the rest of my life!" Rest assured, he is making that noise every day, even if his children might think it's too loud! A Tenor with the Canadian Opera Company chorus, Fabián is waiting like many others to return to the stage when it is safe to do so.
Fabián has recently collaborated with Iranian-Canadian composer Saman Shahi, bringing the song cycle "Orbit" to life, as part of the CD "Breathing in the Shadows". Today we share the 2nd piece of this song cycle, entitled "Another Coffee". While we discussed sharing all three pieces, I decided at the last minute to only share this one... because you really need to get this CD and hear it all for yourself.
