Leon Vitogiannis

Leon Vitogiannis is establishing himself as one of the most exciting baritones of his generation. After completing degrees at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music with Mr. Andrew Dalton and Dr. David Greco, Leon continues to build an impressive list of stage and concert credits. Leon’s stage credits include Figaro in The Barber of Seville, Aeneas in Dido and Aeneas, Eisentein in Die Fledermaus, Count Almaviva in The Marriage of Figaro, Leporello in Don Giovanni, and Mr. McC. in Foss’ Introductions and Goodbyes.

His concert appearances include Requiem (Mozart), Messiah (Handel), Ein Deutsches Requiem (Brahms), Requiem (Fauré), Paulus (Mendelssohn), Crucifixion (Stainer), and the Australian premiere of Requiem for an Angel (Carr). As Leon continues to expand his opera and oratorio repertoire, he also holds Lieder and Art Song to equal importance, focusing on the song cycles of Schubert, Schumann, and Mahler.

​

Among other musical interests, Leon studied conducting with Mr. George Ellis and Dr. John Lynch during his time at the Sydney Conservatorium. Leon is establishing himself as one of Australia’s leading authorities on Classical Greek Music. He conducts, sings, and researches the repertoire and has a keen interest in the genre of Greek Art Song.
