On January 21 and 25 and February 2, 8, and 15, Eric Cutler returns to Opernhaus Zürich as Florestan in Beethoven’s triumphant Fidelio. Cutler has previously performed the role to great international acclaim, appearing at the Royal Ballet and Opera, Dutch National Opera & Ballet, Philharmonie de Paris, MusikTheater an der Wien, Staatsoper Hamburg, and Staatsoper Stuttgart.
Dominic Lowe of Bachtrack praised his recent performance at the Royal Ballet and Opera, saying, “Eric Cutler sang Florestan with a solid, forceful tenor, the Gott in ‘Gott! Welch Dunkel hier!’ a howl of agony. Cutler’s performance was at times almost animalistic; chained, crawling and beating his chest, he veered from defeat to defiance.”
Cutler joins Andreas Homoki’s production alongside an accomplished cast, including Jennifer Holloway as Leonore/Fidelio, Christof Fischesser as Rocco, Simon Neal as Don Pizarro, and Ziyi Dai as Marzelline. Krzysztof Urbański conducts.
