Bryan Hymel opens 2016 on the stage of the Metropolitan Opera, charming audiences as the idealistic poet Rodolfo in Zeffirelli’s iconic production of La bohème. Of his return to the Met, New York Classical Review declares Bryan’s voice “wonderfully suited to the role of the romantic playwright Rodolfo, consistently bright, and clear and ringing in its upper reaches.”

Tune in this evening to hear Bryan’s “ardent, arching phrases” in Puccini’s love story via live broadcast (GB Opera Magazine). The webcast begins at 7:25 p.m. EST and is available online.

La bohème continues at the Met with performances January 16 and 23; April 15, 21, 25 and 29; and May 5.

On the heels of his debut at the Opéra National de Paris in Berlioz’s La damnation de Faust, Bryan returns to the Metropolitan Opera to perform Rodolfo in La bohème.

Bryan last appeared at the Metropolitan Opera in the same role, of which Bachtrack raved: “[Hymel's] agonized cry of ‘Mimì! Mimì’ at the end of Act IV was devastating in both vocal beauty and heart-wrenching pain.”

The American tenor sings under the baton of Dan Ettinger alongside Maria Agresta, Hei-Kyung Hong, Susanna Phillips, and Ailyn Pérez in performances from January 6 to 23, and April 15 to May 5.

This December brings Bryan Hymel to Paris for his Opéra National de Paris debut as the title role in Berlioz’s La damnation de Faust. The American tenor has been lauded for his interpretation of Berlioz, Opera News writing that “in ‘Nature immense,’ from La damnation de Faust, Hymel maintains the intensity of Berlioz’s long, emotionally weighted lines with full, dramatic sound and an innate sense of the flow and innerrhythm of the language as it stretches out over the composer’s slowly evolving harmonic unpinning.” Hear “Nature immense” from Bryan’s debut solo album Héroïque on Spotify or iTunes.

Bryan joins Sophie Koch as Marguerite and Bryn Terfel as Méphistophélès in Alvis Hermanis’s new production of La damnation de Faust under the baton of Philippe Jordan from December 23 to 27.
