ARTUR RUCINSKIBaritone

James VaughanPianist
Songs and arias by composers including Baird, Bellini, Donizetti, Gounod, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Verdi

Artur Rucinski’s debut for Rosenblatt Recitals is a rare opportunity to catch the in-demand Polish baritone performing in the UK. In 2010, Rucinski was invited by Daniel Barenboim to sing the title role in Eugene Onegin at Berlin’s Deutsche Staatsoper under the baton of the Maestro himself, a partnership that will continue in a new production of Le Nozze di Figaro there in February 2012. Other future engagements include La Bohème in Los Angeles and Falstaff at the Hamburg Staatsoper.
