The tenor from Gijón has made a triumphant return to the New York stage after his 2019 appearance in the same theater, where he performed as Calaf in Franco Zeffirelli's legendary production of Turandot. At that time, critics praised him, stating: "Alejandro Roy as Calaf, with a genuine spinto tenor voice of heroic baritonal timbre and resounding high notes, evoked memories of the great voices of the golden age."
Alejandro Roy’s participation in this production of Aida at the Metropolitan Opera is not only a recognition of his talent and dedication but also a source of pride for the Spanish artistic community. His presence on this international stage highlights the quality and level the singer has achieved throughout his career.
Various media outlets, such as Platea Magazine, Ópera World, La Nueva España, and El Debate, have reported on this milestone, which firmly establishes Alejandro Roy as one of the great Spanish tenors. As César Wonenburger writes in El Debate, "Alejandro joins the ranks of Plácido Domingo and Jorge de León, the other recent Spanish tenors who have had the opportunity to perform Aida, the popular opera by Giuseppe Verdi, on the Met stage."
