  1. I found this topic when I was looking for "Andrew Stenson" on the Internet. I had to write something about him. I heard him sing in Cosi Fan Tutte this Monday in New York. It was a joint production with the Met and Juilliard. It's odd how similar my story is with your story. Stenson was actually the cover tenor for Ferrando. The lead Ferrando was indisposed for Act 2 and Stenson sang off stage while the lead mimed. He was unbelievable. His "Ah, lo veggio" was the best I have heard. I am not sure the audience fully realized what they heard that night. "Ah, lo veggio" is NOT an easy aria. It often gets cut out from Cosi. Stenson made it sound easy. It was just unbelievable. Your description is spot on. It was like hearing a mature oratorio singer.
