Graduate of the Royaumont Foundation, the Baroque Academy of Ambronay, and the Cini Foundation in Venice, Marco Angioloni trained in lyrical singing with Donatella Debolini in Florence, followed by further studies in Paris under Enzo La Selva. He then specialized in Baroque repertoire at the Center for Baroque Music in Versailles (CMBV). His stage debut took place in 2013 in the role of Normanno (Lucia di Lammermoor) at the Apostrophe Theatre in Cergy-Pontoise (95). Since then, he has performed alongside conductors such as Andrew Lawrence King, Nicola Piovani, Marcello Rota, Jonathan Webb, David Fallis, Paul Agnew, Filippo Maria Bressan, Geoffroy Jourdain, Christophe Rousset, Jean-Christophe Spinosi, Stéphane Fuget, and Alessandro De Marchi.

He was a member of the fourth generation of Opera Fuoco’s Lyric Workshop led by David Stern. His two solo albums, “Il Canto della Nutrice” (Da Vinci Classics 2020) and “A Baroque Tenor” (Pan Classics 2022), received excellent reviews and were featured at the Handel Festival in Halle, the Salle Blanche du Palais Pitti in Florence, and the Pontoise Baroque Festival.

More recently, he made his debut at the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires in Monteverdi’s L’Incoronazione di Poppea, at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées in Handel’s Dixit Dominus, both under the direction of Jean-Christophe Spinosi.

In 2023, he made his conducting debut with the Il Groviglio ensemble, part of the Château de Versailles Spectacles season, for Handel’s opera Poro and Rinaldo (1731 version), the latter being a world premiere recording. These recordings are set to be released by Château de Versailles Spectacles and Glossa labels in 2024.
