They hail from all corners of the globe, populating the stage of the Deutsche Oper Berlin night after night: young singers complementing and completing the Deutsche Oper ensemble as stipendiaries. Here a manservant with a single line, there the conspiratorial power broker behind the scenes, on another occasion the confidante of the prima donna… and often enough a character with a meatier role.

At our OPERA LOUNGE events they will be presenting their favourite melodies for your delectation. The audience can look forward to a distinctly unusual mix of styles spanning opera arias, musical numbers and folk songs.
