Herbert Handt

Herbert Handt (26 May 1926) is an American operatic tenor and later conductor, particularly known for his conducting and critical editions of rarely performed Italian scores. Handt was born in Philadelphia and studied at the Juilliard School of Music and the Vienna Academy of Music. He made his debut as a singer at the Vienna State Opera in 1949 and his debut as a conductor in Rome in 1960.[1]

Roles created

In his career as a tenor, Handt created roles in three 20th century operas:[2]

gollark: Based on advanced "ctrl+F" technology, there's nothing specifically about drugs or whatever (would be weird if there was) but just "no doing illegal things". *Talking* about drugs is not illegal.
gollark: There's a specific no-explosives rule, there isn't a specific no-talking-about-drugs one (though I Imagine Discord TOS would forbid some related stuff).
gollark: The barriers to having an alternative are probably more financial and legal than technical, inasmuch as video hosting is mostly a solved technical issue by now but actually getting advertisers and such isn't.
gollark: Squirrels can bark?!
gollark: Nitrates and phosphates and stuff? Regular plants need those.
