The Tenor - Jonas KAUFMANN in Recital
Hailed as the greatest tenor of our era, German-born Jonas KAUFMANN is one of the most sought-after vocalists today. In the 21st century, after the peak of the era of the "Three Tenors," KAUFMANN's rise was described by the London Evening Standard as possessing "PAVAROTTI's gleaming tone," "CARRERAS' good looks," and "DOMINGO's dramatic presence." major opera houses worldwide vie for him, and KAUFMANN has performed over seventy opera roles.
In addition to being the brightest star on the operatic stage, KAUFMANN's remarkable achievements in art songs are equally stunning. For German singers, art songs represent the pinnacle of vocal artistry. His long-standing collaboration with the esteemed pianist Helmut DEUTSCH has resulted in a series of acclaimed recordings of SCHUBERT, Richard STRAUSS, and LISZT's art songs, each earning numerous prestigious awards.
In 2025, KAUFMANN and DEUTSCH will make their debut at the Weiwuying Concert Hall. Hearing KAUFMANN's soul-stirring, heart-wrenching voice in this acoustically optimal venue promises to be a truly enchanting experience.

Artists Introduction
Tenor｜Jonas KAUFMANN
Hailed as "the world's greatest tenor" by The Telegraph, Jonas KAUFMANN has performed over 70 roles in the world's leading opera houses. The New York Times has described him as having "clarion top notes, the blend of virility and tenderness in his singing," and praised his "refined musicianship." Not only a great vocal technician, his performances are also praised for their dramatic impact, "He embodies each role with such an investment that he makes the viewer think that this is the last time he will perform this work." (Telerama).
One of today's greatest interpreters of Lieder repertoire, KAUFMANN is also in very high demand in concert. His performances and recording have earned him multiple honors and awards including eleven ECHO/OPUS Klassik awards, "Singer of the Year" from multiple classical music magazines including Opernwelt, Diapason and Musical America. He has been knighted as a Chevalier de l'Ordre de l'Art et des Lettres, and has been named a member of the Bayerischer Maximiliansorden. In 2022 he was appointed Austrian Kammersänger, in 2024 he received the Ordre de la Légion d’honneur.
Last season, KAUFMANN has appeared at the Bavarian State Opera (Peter Grimes and La Fanciulla del West), the Vienna State Opera (Andrea Chenier and Aida), Zurich Opera (Tosca), La Scala Milan (Andrea Chenier), Teatro San Carlo in Naples (Die Walküre) and the Royal Opera House in London (Werther), among others. He also made his long-awaited role debut as Tannhäuser at the Salzburg Easter Festival. To mark the festival's centenary, KAUFMANN gave a concert in the Arena di Verona, together with Sonya Yoncheva and Ludovic Tézier.
At the beginning of the new season he presented a special project with Helmut DEUTSCH and director Claus GUTH at the Park Avenue Armory in New York: Doppelgänger, a staged interpretation of Schubert's Schwanengesang. Following a series of Otello and a new production of Turandot at the Vienna State Opera Kaufmann performed the first act of Die Walküre in the End-of-the-year concerts with the Berlin Philharmonic and Kirill PETRENKO, a series of concerts (The Sound of Movies) in Baden-Baden, Prague, Naples and Wiesbaden, new productions of La Gioconda at the Salzburg Easter Festival and at the Teatro San Carlo in Naples, performances of Aida and Tosca at the Bavarian State Opera and Andrea Chenier at the Royal Opera House. Planned performances until the end of the season include concerts of Act 2 of Tristan and Isolde in Gstaad and Baden-Baden.
A voice which excels in a large variety of repertoire, KAUFMANN has received recognition for his performance of French, German and Italian roles, as well as his performance in recital. Standout roles include Don José, Werther, Don Carlo, Otello, Andrea Chenier, Maurizio, Lohengrin, Parsifal and Florestan, which he has performed at houses such as Teatro alla Scala, Covent Garden, the Bayerische Staatsoper, the Metropolitan Opera, Opernhaus Zürich, Opéra national de Paris, and the Wiener Staatsoper. He has released multiple recordings, also encompassing diverse repertoire, including operatic repertoire, Lieder, operetta, and more.
Piano｜Helmut DEUTSCH
Helmut DEUTSCH ranks among the finest, most successful and in-demand song recital accompanists of the world. He was born in Vienna, where he studied at the Conservatory, the Music Academy and the University.
He was awarded the Composition Prize of Vienna in 1965 and appointed professor at the age of twenty-four.
Although he has performed with leading instrumentalists as a chamber musician, he has concentrated primarily on accompanying in song recitals.
At the beginning of his career he worked with the soprano Irmgard SEEFRIED, but the most important singer of his early years was Hermann PREY, whom he accompanied as a permanent partner for twelve years. Subsequently he has worked with many of the most important recital singers and played in the world's major music centers. His collaborations with Jonas KAUFMANN, Diana DAMRAU and Michael VOLLE are currently among his most important.
DEUTSCH has recorded more than a hundred CDs. In recent years the development of young talent has been especially close to his heart. After his professorship in Vienna he continued his teaching primarily in Munich at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater, where he worked as a professor of song interpretation for 28 years.
In addition he is a visiting professor at various other universities and is sought-after for an increasing number of masterclasses in Europe and the Far East. The young Swiss tenor Mauro PETER was one of his last students in Munich and has become one of his favorite recital partners.
