Rosenblatt Recitals

Alexey Kudrya comes to Rosenblatt Recitals after a busy year which saw him make his debut at both New York’s Metropolitan Opera House and Vienna State Opera in the role of Almaviva in Il barbiere di Siviglia. In 2009 the Russian-born tenor was awarded first prize in Plácido Domingo’s Operalia Competition. Future engagements include Der Rosenkavalier at the Grand Théâtre in Geneva, Così fan tutte in Munich and Tokyo, and Il Duca d’Alba and Il Viaggio a Reims at the Vlaamse Opera in Antwerp.

Artur Rucinski’s debut for Rosenblatt Recitals is a rare opportunity to catch the in-demand Polish baritone performing in the UK. In 2010, Rucinski was invited by Daniel Barenboim to sing the title role in Eugene Onegin at Berlin’s Deutsche Staatsoper under the baton of the Maestro himself, a partnership that will continue in a new production of Le Nozze di Figaro there in February 2012. Other future engagements include La Bohème in Los Angeles and Falstaff at the Hamburg Staatsoper.
