Asawa, Brian Laurence

He was the first countertenor to win the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions (1991), and made his formal Met debut as the Voice of Apollo in Britten's Death in Venice (1994). A specialist in Baroque opera, he was especially noted as Tolomeo in Handel's Giulio Cesare.
