About

Following the success of the album ‘Wien’, esteemed tenor, Jonas Kaufmann, returns with a DVD and BluRay release of ‘Mein Wein’. This is Jonas Kaufmann’s deeply personal tribute to the world-famous melodies from Vienna, the birthplace of waltz and operetta and follows up the album release from Fall 2019. The 100-minute film consists of Jonas Kaufmann’s Wiener Konzerthaus concert interspersed with documentary-style segments where Jonas Kaufmann explores the city’s fascinating lighter musical heritage.

‘Wien’ features a stunning collection of operetta hits and Viennese songs composed between 1870 and 1950. Kaufmann teams up with the world-renowned Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra and Adam Fischer. His concert from the Wiener Konzerthaus includes well-known Viennese songs like “Wien, Wien nur du allein”, “Im Prater blühn wieder die Bäume”, “Sag beim Abschied leise ‘Servus’”. He also sings scenes from famous operettas such as The Merry Widow, Wiener Blut and Die Fledermaus where soprano Rachel Willis-Sørensen joins him on the duets. The city also inspired many timeless songs including Robert Stolz’s “Im Prater blühn wieder die Bäume” and Rudolf Sieczyński’s “Wien, Wien nur du allein”, Hans May’s “Heut ist der Schönste Tag”; Hermann Leopoldi’s “In einem kleinen Café in Hernals” and Georg Kreisler’s “Der Tod muss ein Wiener sein” – to name a few of these charming songs championed down the years by the tenor-greats such as Richard Tauber, Rudolf Schock and Fritz Wunderlich.

Kaufmann has won numerous prestigious awards including Gramophone Awards and Echo Klassik Awards.
