Picture of Franco Sioli

Franco Sioli, baritono, pianista, oboista e direttore d'orchestra italiano, came out in the early 1980s. His greatest success was winning the first Pavarotti competion. His Rigoletto was incredible and caused a near riot in Marseille. He was taken apart all evening by the audience. You can learn a few French insults here.
