Philippe Jaroussky
Born: 13th February 1978, Maisons-Laffitte, France
Nationality: French
Philippe Jaroussky is one of the small but growing number of artists reviving the counter-tenor (and castrato) repertoire of centuries past. His astounding versatility and sweet tone make his voice instantly recognisable and an excellent ambassador for this music, which has been unperformed (indeed essentially unperformable) since the end of the castrato era.
