Known as “the first operatic superstar to win over Gen Z” (Telegraph Luxury), Polish countertenor Jakub Józef Orliński has taken the world by storm. An accomplished model and breakdancer as well as a singer with “the voice of an angel” (The Sunday Times), Jakub is renowned for his unique ability to connect with new audiences and art forms worldwide. Following his landmark performance at the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, Jakub took center stage in early 2026 at the Gala des Pièces Jaunes, proving that classical mastery has no boundaries. He presented not only his viral Vivaldi hit “Vedro con mio diletto” for 40,000 people but also surprised the crowd by joining A$AP Rocky for a high-energy collaboration. His “ravishing” (The Guardian) live performances have sold out concert halls and opera houses all over the world. As an exclusive recording artist for Warner Classics/Erato, Jakub has earned critical acclaim for his recordings of undiscovered early music gems. His recording Beyond was named one of The Times’ best classical albums of 2023. His next album, If music…, due in Spring 2026, showcases Jakub in 17 songs and arias by Purcell, Handel, and Fux. In a distinctive artistic choice, he is partnered not by a period ensemble but by his long-standing collaborator, pianist Michał Biel, who draws on the full resonance of a modern Steinway grand.
