He was born in Istanbul and brought up in Vienna from the age of five, and though he did not attend university or conservatoire, he was a member of the studio of Zürich Opera from 2009 to 2013 and went on to be a member of the ensemble of the Stadttheater Klagenfurt (2013-2015) and Staatstheater Nürnberg (2015-18).

This performance of Luigi Cherubini’s Koukourgi isn’t even close to such an occasion. Here we are at the Stadttheater Klagenfurt for the world premiere of this opéra-comique that was written shortly after its composer retired to the provinces to wait out the revolutionary unpleasantness in Paris.
