Étude Arts celebrates Kálmán Péter bass-baritone who returns to the Wiener Staatsoper tonight for the first of two engagements this season, bowing as Sulpice in Donizetti’s fanciful La fille du régiment, with further performances through November 13. Full of brisk military marches and lilting melodies, Laurent Pelly’s celebrated production of La fille du régiment has been staged by leading opera houses around the world. The Hungarian bass-baritone, who will have bowed as Sulpice in the production in Vienna and at the Metropolitan Opera, brings his gift for Buffo opera and his rich vocal presence to this belovedly bumbling role. TOI TOI TOI!!!
