 * Keep Self-promotion (even if this is established) is not a valid reason for deleting an article if the subject is notable. See his press coverage and reviews (including an interview with Reuters). He has sung leading roles at La Scala, English National Opera, and elsewhere and won three major competitions, including the Grand Prize at the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions and the Julián Gayarre Competition The article needs copy-editing for better style and more references added. Again, needing improvement is grounds to improve an article not delete it. I'm also a little concerned that the nominator's first and only edit to Wikipedia was to nominate an article for deletion, clearly without having done any prior research on the subject.

 * Update. I've copyedited the article for encyclopedic style and tone and added two more references. Voceditenore (talk)
