Opera

The sung repertoire comprises more than 40 roles of all styles, from G. Fr. Handel to contemporary composers like Peter Eötvös and Liza Lim. The main focus was first on lyric repertoire roles mostly by Mozart, Rossini and romantic composers. Today it's expanding into the Kavalier and lighter Helden-baritone repertoire (most recent: Gunther/ Götterdämmerung, Amfortas/ Parsifal, Faninal/ Rosenkavalier).

PRESS REVIEWS

CD „Songs of the Night“

“There are recitals that capture the audience from the first song and never let go. “Songs of the Night” by Christian Miedl definitely belongs to this group, because the twenty art songs on this CD portrait have an absolutely magical effect on the listener.” (DAS OPERNGLAS)

 

“Consummate opera singer Miedl shows how superbly he masters the many facets of Lied. He just released a debut CD, with a fascinating program around songs of the night.“ (WDR3 Cultural Radio)
