Bernard Hansky
German baritone Bernhard Hansky is acclaimed as “a buffo baritone of irresistible mirth” (Der Tagesspiegel). He worked closely with the Semperoper Dresden, recently assuming the roles of Alvaro in a new production of Il Viaggio a Reims, Nick Carraway in The Great Gatsby, Kilian in Der Freischütz, Baron Douphol in La Traviata, Morales in Carmen, and Niceros in Satyricon, which also took him to Osterfestspiele Salzburg and the Teatro Comunale Modena. Other highlights include Ping in new productions of Turandot at Staatsoper Berlin with Zubin Mehta and at Staatsoper Hamburg with Giacomo Sagripanti, Hermann/Schlemil in a new production of Les contes d’Hoffmann, also in Hamburg with Kent Nagano, and Mahler’s Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen with the Orchestre national de Lille and Alpesh Chauhan. He has appeared at Komische Oper Berlin, as a member of the Opernstudio, and is a guest of prominent festivals in Copenhagen, Lignano, Wildbad, and Grafenegg.
