Hello my friends, and welcome to our Summer 2025 Newsletter!
This may be my most exciting summer ever, with a new production of Maria Stuarda at the Salzburger Festspiele to crown my entire season!
In June I had a splendid concert with Maestro Yannick Nézet-Séguin and the Orchestre Métropolitain de Montreal in the beautiful city of Baden-Baden, and in July I will sing two performances of Verdi’s I masnadieri at the Bayerische Staatsoper. All while preparing a truly monumental new production in Salzburg.
This is going to be an incredible run of performances in August, with a broadcast planned for the premiere on August the 1st. In September I return to Zürich to sing Manon alongside my friend and colleague Benjamin Bernheim as Des Grieux.
Although it’s a lot of work to keep me busy this summer, and a lot of projects to look forward to in the fall, I of course love being in the mountains and fresh air of the Alps, where I feel regenerated every single day!
Hope you can make it to this glorious region to see me in Munich, Salzburg, or Zürich very soon!
