  • Thurn und Taxis Gala Concert

    Thurn und Taxis Palace, Regensburg Germany
    Jul 2024
    • Der ukrainische Tenor bewegt sich auf künstlerischer und dramaturgischer Augenhöhe mit Asmik Grigorian, wenn er mit der Arie „E lucevan le stelle“ des Cavaradossi aus der „Tosca“ eine erste sängerische Kostprobe in den Innenhof des fürstlichen Schlosses stellt. Mit der Kraft seiner dramatisch aufgeladenen Stimme weiß er geschickt umzugehen, führt sie ebenso gekonnt in lyrische Passagen seiner Partien, und findet sich immer bestens abgestimmt ein in die Duette mit Grigorian. [translation]The Ukrainian tenor is on an artistic and dramaturgical level with Asmik Grigorian when he gives his first vocal taste in the courtyard of the princely castle with the aria "E lucevan le stelle" by Cavaradossi from "Tosca". He knows how to use the power of his dramatically charged voice skilfully, leads it just as skilfully into lyrical passages of his parts, and always finds himself perfectly coordinated in the duets with Grigorian.
