La bohème at the Wiener Staatsoper

Following on from his successful debut as Roméo in Gounod’s Roméo et Juliette in Switzerland, Mr. Bernheim makes a return to the Wiener Staatsoper to perform the role of Rodolfo in Puccini’s esteemed opera, La bohème. His performance at Opéra national de Paris in 2017 was praised by Opera Online who claimed: “the timbre is beautiful, supple, warm but above all the vocal line is remarkably sustained, with an ideal projection, a permanent support which opens the voice towards its higher space and allows him to live in the great hall of the Opéra Bastille, and an intelligence of singing which greatly contributes to the construction of the character, both psychological and vocal.” On this occasion, he performs opposite Rachel Willis-Sørensen as Mimi, Anna Bondarenko as Musetta, Boris Pinkhasovich as Marcello, Peter Kellner as Colline and Stefan Astakhov as Schaunard. Maestra Eun Sun Kim conducts the Wiener Staatsoper’s chorus and orchestra in this Franco Zeffirelli production. 

 Performances take place on January 19th, 22nd, 25th, 28th and 31st. For tickets and more information, click here.
