Who is this guy? Campbell Vertesi is an operatic bass, of the very low sort. His fach is sometimes called "Basso Profundo" - that's Italian for "he sings really low." Even lower than most basses, which is a bit frightening. He specializes in bass roles like Sarastro (Die Zauberflöte), Sparafucile (Rigoletto), and Colline (La Bohème). This site chronicles Campbell's progress as he begins a career as a young opera singer.

No, unless you mean the Vier ernste Gesänge? That's actually "four LAST songs", but the texts are all sacred. Those are absolutely phenomenal - but they get put into the "I'm not worthy" pile (along with Don Carlo and Boris Goudinov) for another 20 years. :)
