I will be performing this aria, “Vesti la giubba” from ‘Pagliacci’ tonight at Kloster Benediktbeuern, along with many other pieces I love singing. Joining me are soprano Rachel Willis-Sørensen, the Augsburger Philharmoniker and conductor Jochen Rieder for this festive summer evening that I am looking forward to sharing with all of you! 🎥: Sat 3 at the Salzburger Festspiele | Jonas Kaufmann
