Première: Siyabonga Maqungo as Wagner in Arrigo Boito’s “Mefistofele” in Chemnitz

Siyabonga Maqungo, the incredible tenor who, just a few months ago, debuted as David in Wagner’s “Meistersinger” under Daniel Barenboim in Berlin and earned rave reviews and well-deserved accolades for his performance, enters his second season as a member of the cast at the Oper Chemnitz, and it looks to be a busy one, as, after the première as Wagner and Nerèo in Boito’s “Mefistofele”, he will debut as Belmonte in Mozart’s “The Abduction from the Seraglio”, among other roles.
