Good morning, Benjamin Bernheim!
from BackstageClassical · host Axel Brüggemann
Tenor Benjamin Bernheim takes aim at the classical music industry: too many blind dates when it comes to new productions, too much power in the hands of directors, and too much panic about losing relevance. In a conversation with BackstageClassical, he calls for new ways of working, greater honesty, and the courage to accept opera for what it is: a valuable niche art form. Why less can also mean better — and why, in the end, only quality and authenticity matter.
