Soloist of the Year
You can’t imagine what a long way Tadas Girininkas has travelled with the “Bohemians” from the modest long-haired chap who could not be comfortable onstage due to his tall physique, to the elegant Italian bon vivant as Don Alfonso in Così fan tutte. This particular character is to blame for conceiving a cunning plan to put the fidelity of the loving couples to the test and persuading two pals to disguise themselves as foreigners to seduce each other’s girlfriends. What is the purpose of such cynicism? Perhaps nothing more than romantic mischief. This production helped reveal his previously undiscovered talent as a quipster. Today, he is not only an award-winning soloist, father and husband, but also one of the most kind-hearted and down-to-earth opera personalities frequently engaged to perform major dramatic bass roles.
