Few tenors have enjoyed such a meteoric rise to prominence over the past five years as Jonathan Tetelman. In February, he will be performing great arias from the oeuvres of Giuseppe Verdi and Giacomo Puccini.
He captivates audiences from the New York Met and the Vienna State Opera to London’s Covent Garden and the Semperoper Dresden. His debut performances at the Salzburg Festival were met with just as much enthusiasm as those in Baden-Baden or his first guest appearance with the Berlin Philharmonic. On 26 February, Jonathan Tetelman made his role debut at Munich’s National Theatre as the title character in Gounod’s Faust. His vocal range and his silvery, lustrous timbre are widely praised, propelling him into the very top echelon of star tenors.
“The tenor Jonathan Tetelman proves himself a great performer with a rich timbre. In the end, there was no stopping it: As soon as the final note of Nessun dorma had faded, applause erupted in the Isarphilharmonie like a hurricane.” (SZ, 12/25)
“Jonathan Tetelman quickly demonstrates that we are in the presence of a phenomenal singer with incredible stage presence. When he gets going, some of the notes tingle pleasantly on your eardrums – something that only happens with the very best singers. A brilliant debut.” (NDR Kultur, 07/25)
