ABOUT THE CONCERT

Fort Worth Opera opens its 80th anniversary season with a rare stateside appearance by internationally acclaimed tenor Jonathan Tetelman. A Deutsche Grammophon recording artist and jet-setting leading man, Tetelman has captivated audiences with his warm, full-bodied tenor and ardent stage presence — from Lisbon to Prague, and Istanbul to Taipei. On October 10, he takes the stage at Van Cliburn Concert Hall for a one-night-only event. Tetelman will be joined onstage by accompanist Michael Recchiuti, a celebrated conductor and pianist who has collaborated with opera legends like Renée Fleming and icons like Vanessa Williams. A star in his own right, Recchiuti brings decades of international experience to the keyboard.

People will be talking about this event for a long time. If you’re anywhere near Fort Worth on October 10, you’re going to want a ticket.
