The American baritone Jacob Scharfman has been the winner of the Victoria de los Ángeles Award for the best interpreter of Oratorio-Lied at the Francesc Viñas International Competition 2019, awarded annually by the Victoria de los Ángeles Foundation, the Fundació "la Caixa" and the Franz Association Schubert.

Scharfman is currently part of the Gerard Mortier International Opera Studio of the Salzburger Landestheater, where he is perfecting several operatic roles. In his solo presentation, he appears together with the pianist Rodrigo de Vera who, trained at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama in London and the English National Opera (ENO), is the current co-repeater of the Grand Theater of the Lyceum. The recital they offer us consists of works by Franz Schubert, Johannes Brahms, Claude Debussy or Maurice Ravel, among others.
