Jonas Kaufmann: L’Opera

Jonas Kaufmann pays homage to a magnificent era of opera that defined musical splendor and elegance, in his new album of 19th-century French opera arias and duets. “The French operatic repertory is very close to my heart,” says Kaufmann. “This fascinating music reflects a period in European culture. I didn’t want to choose only highlights for this album but also works and roles that have been key experiences for me”
