»Benjamin Bernheim is only 34 years old and has the most beautiful tenor voice I have heard since Luciano Pavarotti,« wrote a music critic in the quality German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung in November 2019. With Parisian elegance, a handsome voice and a gorgeous tone as well as a remarkable emotional intensity and effortless lyricism, Bernheim has sung his way into the hearts of audiences across the globe. There is no question that he fully deserves the wide acclaim and many awards he has received for his performances on the major stages of the world. His artistic success is built on singing Italian and French operatic works, whereby he prefers the music of his native France. He will be singing his favourite arias for us this evening as we enjoy a deeply emotional performance by this passionate and gifted artist.
