Aldo Di Toro, Lyric tenor
AIMS ’02, Meistersinger Competition 1st Place

Aldo Di Toro"I was fortunate to receive the Opera Foundation of Australia scholarship. AIMS changed my life and work. That summer experience gave me so much direction and knowledge. I met my future teacher, agent and coach, and made lifelong friendships. I took full advantage of the opportunities to grow as a singer that summer (coaching opera and Lieder with every teacher who would give me 30 minutes) and the solid ideas have stayed with me. I also had so much fun learning at AIMS! Now I will debut in Austria in major tenor roles. Thank you, AIMS!"

Aldo’s recent roles include multiple performances of Il Duca (Rigoletto) in Italy, Alfredo (La Traviata) at Sydney Opera House, Loris (Fedora) in London’s Holland Park concerts, and Bill (Flight) at Glyndebourne (UK). In 2007, he sang leading roles in Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Perth. In 2008, he will sing with the Bilkent Symphony at the Mersin Festival in Turkey. In May, he returns to Innsbruck to sing the title role in Roméo et Juliette.
