Over Christmas and New Year's Eve, with the generous support of Zürich Versicherungen and Freunde der Oper Zürich, we present the «Curtain Call» series. Prominent singers meet at eye level with the up-and-coming talents of the International Opera Studio and create a concert evening together. This concert series is also the prelude to our anniversary year – 60 years of Freunde der Oper Zürich and 60 years of the International Opera Studio.
The Videos are available until Sunday, January 17 2021, 24.00.
The young French-Swiss tenor Benjamin Bernheim is on his way to a world career. He was named "Singer of the Year" at the French "Victoire de la Musique" this year. Once a member of the International Opera Studio, Benjamin Bernheim can now be heard regularly at the Opéra de Paris, the Vienna State Opera or the Bavarian State Opera in major roles in his field, including as the Duke of Mantua in Verdi's Rigoletto, as Chevalier Des Grieux in Manon and soon as Werther in Jules Massenet's opera of the same name. Benjamin Bernheim traces the various facets of passion and romantic love in these three operas together with young artists from the International Opera Studio.
