Review of the 23/24 season

 

The 23/24 season took me to many exciting projects around the world. Particular highlights were my debuts in Oslo with the Norwegian Soloists Choir and as a soloist at the Singfest in Hong Kong , where I sang the roles of the Evangelist and Arientenor in a staged performance of Bach's St. John Passion.

 

I went on various trips abroad with Vox Luminis in the spring: in February to Helsinki with Swedish baroque music, in March on a passion tour with two different early baroque programs, in which I took on the role of Pilate in Johann Sebastiani's St. Matthew Passion. Recordings of this tour were broadcast live on various radio stations (including SRF Klassik, Klassiek Radio). With Ensemble 1684 I sang Bach's St. Matthew Passion in a solo line-up alongside Daniel Johannsen. In April I appeared as a soloist at a concert at the Wigmore Hall in London alongside Florian Sievers, Felix Schwandtke, Viola Blache and Alexander Chance with early Weimar Bach cantatas, also with Vox Luminis.

 

In June I sang with Pia Davila at the Mozart Festival in Würzburg under the direction of Wolfgang Katschner and played in the revival at the Liebhabertheater Großkochberg in historically informed costumes and gestures with the Lautten Compagney Berlin. The finale was my return to Utopia , Teodor Currentzis' ensemble, at the Salzburg Festival. A personal highlight was when Currentzis praised my singing with "Beautiful" in a rehearsal in which I briefly sang for the absent tenor soloist.

 

Outlook for the 24/25 season

 

The coming 24/25 season has some special highlights in store. In the fall I will sing the baritone solo in Brahms' "Ein Deutsches Requiem" with the young and exciting Assambura Ensemble under the direction of Joss Reinicke. This is the fulfillment of a long-held dream that only a few tenors are granted. By the end of the year I will be heard with Vox Luminis in at least five different programs. In addition, I will be making my debut in the USA and Canada.

 

Next spring I will return to the Thomanerchor Leipzig as a tenor soloist, will be on a St. John Passion tour with the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra and will sing Elijah in two major romantic concerts with star baritone Markus Eiche. In the summer of 2025 I will then go on an experimental artistic-existential journey with Kian Jazdi in MIGRANTENEXPRESS .

 

It’s worth taking a regular look at the calendar on my website!
