Javier Camarena

Tenor

Biography

Mexican tenor Javier Camarena is the preeminent Bel Canto specialist of his generation. Praised for his burnished tone, gleaming high notes, flawless coloratura and veracious portrayals, he regularly appears in leading roles at the world’s top opera houses, and he was the face of Opera News’s 80th anniversary edition in 2018. As Ernesto in Donizetti’s Don Pasquale, he became only the second singer in Metropolitan Opera history to perform encores in multiple productions at the house, after the audience demanded a repeat of his aria “E se fia che ad altro oggetto.” Camarena went on to repeat the same feat in La fille du régiment at Madrid’s Teatro Real.
