One of the opera world’s fastest-rising stars, Bryan Hymel continues to perform leading repertoire in the music capitals of the world. Hailed by the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung for his “range of expression and vocal power combined with the subtle art of characterisation,” Hymel is the winner of the 2013 Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in Opera for his trio of performances in Les Troyens, Robert le diable, and Rusalka at London’s Royal Opera House. The New York Times praised his “unflagging stamina and impetuous abandon” during his 2012 Metropolitan Opera debut as Énée in Les Troyens, for which he was presented with the Metropolitan Opera’s Beverly Sills Artist Award. In 2014 Hymel became an exclusive recording artist for Warner Classics, with his first solo album released in 2015.
Hymel’s 2014-2015 season brings a number of house and role debuts across the United States. His season begins at the Metropolitan Opera where he sings the role of Rodolfo in Franco Zeffirelli’s classic production of La Bohème. Hymel makes his house and role debut as Percy in Lyric Opera of Chicago’s staging of Anna Bolena in December, followed by a reprisal of the role of Rodolfo in Dallas Opera’s production of La Bohème in March. Hymel’s exciting summer season includes his house debut with San Francisco Opera where he performs his renowned rendition of Énée in Les Troyens, followed by his highly anticipated return to the Santa Fe Opera for performances of the Duke in Rigoletto. On the concert stage, Hymel appears in a special New Year’s concert at the Royal Opera House, Oman under the baton of Mo. Emmanuel Villaume, followed by the US premiere of legendary rock star Roger Waters’ opera Ça Ira with the Nashville Symphony. Hymel returns to Toulouse in February to perform Berlioz’s Requiem with the Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse.
Bryan Hymel’s recent seasons have brought debuts and return engagements at the world’s most accomplished opera houses and festivals. A favorite of audiences at London’s Royal Opera House, Hymel made his Covent Garden debut in 2010 as Don José in Carmen and has since returned for performances in Rusalka, Les Troyens, Robert le diable, and Les Vêpres siciliennes. Hymel made his debut at Teatro alla Scala as Don José in 2010, later reprising the role with the Canadian Opera Company and in his debut at the Bayerische Staatsoper. His Metropolitan Opera debut came in 2012 with Les Troyens, and he returned to the Met in 2014 for Madama Butterfly.
