BIOGRAPHY
Lisandro Abadie was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where he began his musical studies. He graduated at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis and the Musikhochschule Luzern. He was awarded the Edwin Fischer Gedenkpreis in 2006.
He has sung under the direction of William Christie, Laurence Cummings, Václav Luks, Francesco Corti, Rubén Dubrovsky, Tōnu Kaljuste, Jordi Savall, Paul Agnew, Matthew Halls, Paul Goodwin, Fabio Bonizzoni, Skip Sempé, Philippe Herreweghe, Vincent Dumestre, Simon-Pierre Bestion, Jörg Halubek, Hervé Niquet, Adam Viktora, Geoffroy Jourdain, among others.
In the field of opera, his wide repertoire extends from Monteverdi to contemporary music and particularly includes Handel and Viktor Ullmann. In 2010 he created the title role of the opera Cachafaz by Oscar Strasnoy, staged by Benjamin Lazar. He has collaborated with ensembles like Les Arts Florissants, Collegium 1704, Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Les Talens Lyriques, Le Poème Harmonique, La Tempête, Le Concert Étranger, Ensemble Inégal, La Risonanza.
Among his numerous recordings: Handel’s Music for Queen Caroline, Airs sérieux et à boire (Bien que l’amour, Si vous vouliez un jour, N’espérez plus mes yeux), Handel’s Siroe, the complete Monteverdi Madrigals and Vespro, Hayes’ The Passions, Handel’s Aci, Galatea e Polifemo, Gilles’ Messe des Morts, Marais’ Sémélé, Lalande’s Grands Motets, Schumann’s Der Rose Pilgerfahrt, Bach Mirror, The Tempest, and the DVDs of Handel’s La Resurrezione, and Lully’s Phaëton.
Lisandro started 2022 as a lecturer on sources of historical performance practice at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, where he already teaches in the Master of Advanced Studies, AVES (Advanced Vocal Ensemble Studies) since 2019. He is invited to give masterclasses with William Christie and Les Arts Florissants, at the Stuttgart Hochschule für Musik, at the Urbino Early Music Course, and in the Venice Madrigal Weeks.
He collaborates with the lutenist Mónica Pustilnik and with the pianist and composer Paul Suits. He regularly performs at the Handel Festivals in London, Karlsruhe, Göttingen.
Lisandro is the author of numerous translations, and regularly collaborates as a dramaturgical researcher with the stage director Benjamin Lazar. His research on the manuscript of Viktor Ullmann’s opera Der Kaiser von Atlantis is reflected in the recent recording for IBS records.
His most recent collaborations with EarlyMusicSources.com resulted in his translation and bilingual edition of Giulio Caccini’s Published Writings [ebook] [video], as well as the episodes on Vibrato [video] and on Castrati [video]
Presently he is preparing a book on his current research topic: “vibrato” –oscillations, pulsations, undulations– as documented by historical sources and organ stops in Europe and abroad since the 16th century. [article] [video]
