The opera singer with one of the rarest voices in the world: Being on stage is not easy'
Briefly

Venezuelan male soprano Samuel Marino is enchanting Australian audiences with his natural and pure soprano voice. Unlike countertenors who use falsetto, Marino's vocal style is described as a light lyric soprano with coloratura. His charming personality radiates from the stage, delighting audiences, especially men, who are surprised by his high notes. Post-Covid, Marino has embraced fashion, abandoning traditional black tuxedos for vibrant costumes, sequins, and high heels, stating that he now dresses to reflect joy and fun, showcasing his individuality on stage.
I like to describe my voice as a light lyric soprano, with a bit of coloratura,” says Marino, highlighting the uniqueness of his vocal style as a male soprano.
And it’s even more breathtaking to watch other males in the audience see this handsome young man walking out on stage … then suddenly this rare jewel of a voice.
Before Covid, it was all so strict, all boring black tuxedoes … but no audience? I say, you know what, I will dress for fun.
The flamboyant attire and vintage jewellery represents my expression now; I’m very picky about my jewellery, brands want to work with me.
