Lyric is proud to present world-renowned tenor Piotr Beczała, one of the most sought-after artists of our time, in an intimate recital at the Lyric Opera House.
Following his overwhelming Lyric success in both his debut in the title role in Faust and as Edgardo in Lucia di Lammermoor, this is a thrilling opportunity to bask in the sound of a voice that has been praised as “elegant and impassioned” by The New York Times. He’s a frequent leading man at international opera houses from New York to Vienna — but there’s only one place to see him in Chicago this season!
Performing works by:
Francesco Paolo Tosti
Stanisław Moniuszko
Ottorino Respighi
Karol Szymanowski
Stefano Donaudy
Mieczysław Karłowicz
Ermano Wolf-Ferrari
“Piotr Beczała has the kind of voice you want to hang medals on. Its luminosity makes many of his fellow lyric tenors, past and present, sound by comparison like flickering candlewicks.”
