Wolfgang Ablinger-Sperrhacke
TénorWhether as Herod in Richard Strauss’s Salome, as Mime in Wagner’s Ring des Nibelungen or as the Captain in Alban Berg’s Wozzeck: Wolfgang Ablinger-Sperrhacke is one of the foremost character tenors of the present day with his “skilfully executed, acutely pointed tone” (oper aktuell). He is also a “stage animal” who “with overwhelming presence and exemplary text comprehensibility” really “succeeds in creating exciting portraits of roles” (Neue Zürcher Zeitung). He was appointed Bayerischer Kammersänger in 2021 and Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres of France in 2022.
