Giorgio Batistelli

Richard III

Giorgio Batistelli • Richard III • Opéra de Genève

The casting of the remaining male roles cannot be faulted, Urban Malmbergen as Buckingham, Bruce Rankin as Edward 1V and Christopher Lemmings as Clarence.

The tenor Christopher Lemmings was double parted as Richard’s brother, Clarence, and the hired assassin, Tyrrel. Lemmings has a bright and engaging voice, and showed considerable skill and versatility in convincingly portraying, both vocally and as an actor, the widely differing roles.
