Tenor Jonas Kaufmann’s stirring performance of heroic tenor arias, which launched the hit Met Stars Live in Concert series last summer, is now available on Met Opera on Demand, our subscription streaming service. Accompanied by pianist Helmut Deutsch from Bavaria’s Polling Abbey, Kaufmann sings classic selections from the Italian and French repertoires—as well as a few lesser-known gems.

In this clip, I speak this line from “I Pagliacci” in a Philipp Stölzl production at the Osterfestspielen Salzburg, in 2015. Tonight, I will speak this line again, this time at the Wiener Staatsoper, as I perform Canio in a production by Jean-Pierre Ponnelle. | Jonas Kaufmann | Facebook
