@tenorkaufmann: What a nice evening celebrating 70 years since the reopening of the Wiener Staatsoper, with my colleagues in Wien. I hope that the free concert in the Burggarten also will lead to people seeing their first opera in the Staatsoper. That would be very nice, because that's the real reason why we do something like that...it gives us the opportunity to perform for a potentially new audience and bring opera outside the opera house for free. Here is a little extract from our open air concert, Cavaradossi’s final aria from “Tosca,” that I performed with the Orchester der Wiener Staatsoper, conducted by Bertrand de Billy. I look forward to performing this role this season at the Opernhaus Zürich, and Opéra national de Paris! Watch the full aria on my YouTube channel. 📹: ORF III #opera #sing #tenor
