【2025衛武營國際音樂節】假聲男高音獨唱會-賈斯汀・金與賽瑪《從巴洛克到卡巴萊》

新世代國際歌劇之星首次來臺

2023年以經典童話歌劇《糖果屋》的漢塞爾，獲頒達拉斯歌劇院「卡拉絲年度首演藝術家獎」，2024年在里爾歌劇院挑大樑，演出義大利作曲家波爾波拉《波里菲莫》中的美少年阿希斯，假聲男高音賈斯汀正以清亮、靈活又深情的嗓音，在世界歌劇舞台大放異彩。

1988年出生，12歲從韓國金海移居美國，在芝加哥近郊帕拉丁成長。就讀西北大學電腦科學專業時，抵擋不住對唱歌的愛，於大四轉換跑道，開始專注音樂。賈斯汀原本專攻男高音，但在其主修老師布蘭卡喬的鼓勵下，一腳踏進被金形容為「特藝七彩」的假聲男高音專業，並找到真正適合自己的路。

伴隨他在學生時代自錄的演唱影片（其中最具代表性的就是他曾多次模仿當代最優秀的次女高音之一芭托莉），在網上獲得更多關注，以及大學畢業後，留學英國取得皇家音樂院演唱碩士，賈斯汀的演唱事業逐步展開。2013年，先在南法極富盛名的普羅旺斯埃克斯音樂節上，演出卡瓦利的《艾琳娜》，隔年又在巴黎喜歌劇院擔任小約翰．史特勞斯《蝙蝠》中的反串角色奧羅夫斯基王子。2019年更具突破性地，成為柯芬園演出《費加洛的婚禮》時，首位擔綱僮僕凱魯比諾的男歌手，打破一直以來由女聲演唱的傳統，帶出嶄新表現。

嫻熟遊走在不同性別角色間，也難怪2022年聖塔菲歌劇院準備首演講述法國外交官與京劇名伶之情愛糾葛的《蝴蝶君》時，鎖定賈斯汀為主角，請他詮釋劇中男扮女裝、又迷倒男性的雙面宋麗玲。

本場演出另一位要角鋼琴家賽瑪來自法國，畢業於巴黎高等音樂院。近年彈而優則指，帶領自己創辦的「陽台」室內樂團，挖掘經典歌劇，也發表全新創作，2023年的製作羅西尼《灰姑娘》更登上香榭麗舍劇院。他的演奏兼具細膩音色與豐沛情感，和賈斯汀的風格極為合拍，事實上兩人確實是多年好友。這次獨唱會邀來雙方聯手，相信會是令人驚豔的組合。

An international opera stars of new generation will make his debut in Taiwan

In 2023, Kangmin Justin KIM won the Dallas Opera's "Maria Callas Debut Artist of the Year Award" for his role as the Hansel in the classic fairy tale opera Hansel and Gretel. In 2024, he will take the lead at the Opéra de Lille, performing the role of the beautiful young man Acis in Italian composer Nicola PORPORA's Polifemo. Justin is dazzling the world’s opera stages with his bright, agile, and deeply expressive countertenor voice.

Born in 1988, Justin moved from Gimhae, South Korea, to the United States at the age of 12, growing up in Palatine, a suburb of Chicago. Initially a computer science major at Northwestern University, he couldn't resist his love for singing and switched his focus to music in his senior year. Originally trained as a tenor, it was his main instructor, Theresa BRANCACCIO, who encouraged him to explore the world of countertenor, which Justin described as "the world in Technicolor,"and he discovered it was truly his calling.

During his student days, he recorded performance videos himself, which included multiple compelling impersonations of Cecilia BARTOLI, one of the most renowned mezzo-sopranos of our time. These videos gained him significant attention online. After graduating, he continued his studies in the UK, earning a master's degree in vocal performance from the Royal Academy of Music. His singing career steadily progressed, and in 2013, he performed in Francesco CAVALLI's Elena at the prestigious Festival d'Aix-en-Provence in southern France. The following year, he played the trouser role of Prince Orlofsky in Johann STRAUSS II's Die Fledermaus at the Opéra Comique in Paris. His groundbreaking moment came in 2019 when he became the first male singer to perform the role of Cherubino in Le nozze di Figaro at Covent Garden, a role traditionally sung by women, offering a fresh interpretation.

His adeptness at navigating roles of different genders made him the perfect choice for the Santa Fe Opera's 2022 world premiere of M. Butterfly, an opera that explores the complex relationship between a French diplomat and a Peking opera singer. Justin was cast as the lead, SONG Li-ling, a character who disguises himself as a woman and captivates men, showcasing his exceptional ability to embody duality on stage.

The pianist for this performance, Alphonse CEMIN, hails from France, where he graduated from the Conservatoire de Paris. In recent years, he has expanded from performing as an instrumentalist to also conducting, leading his chamber ensemble Le Balcon in both classic operas and new works. His 2023 production of Gioachino ROSSINI's La Cenerentola was staged at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées. Known for delicate touch and rich emotional expression, CEMIN's style harmonizes perfectly with Justin's. In fact, the two have been close friends for many years. Featuring their collaboration, this recital promises to be stunning.
