Australian countertenor Max Riebl has died aged 30, only days after sharing news of his incurable cancer diagnosis on Facebook.
Described as ‘a singer of translucent, burnished tone and vivid, athletic coloratura,’ by Erin Helyard, Artistic Director of Pinchgut Opera, Riebl was a versatile and engaging performer, equally adept at the works of Radiohead and Kate Bush as with the classical and operatic canon.
