  • Il Duca di Mantova | Rigoletto | Verdi

    Leipzig Opera
    Mar 2024 - Jun 2024

    • Piotr Buszewski stellte den Herzog von Mantua als äußerlich liebenswürdig dar, verbarg aber kaum die Bereitschaft der Figur, seine Machtposition zu nutzen, um andere zu manipulieren, damit sie ihm geben, was er will. Buszewskis reiche Tenorstimme ist für die Ballade im ersten Akt „Questa o quella per me pari sono“ und die Canzone im dritten Akt „La donna è mobile“, die zu den technisch anspruchsvollsten der Oper gehören, ideal geeignet. Stimmlich und visuell hat Buszewski die Komplexität des Herzogs erfasst: die Umgänglichkeit, die unterschwellige Grausamkeit und die erotische Energie, die er in den von ihm gewählten Momenten ausstrahlt. Piotr Buszewski portrayed the Duke of Mantua as outwardly amiable, but barely concealed the character's willingness to use his position of power to manipulate others into giving him what he wants. Buszewski's rich tenor voice is ideally suited to the ballad in the first act, "Questa o quella per me pari sono", and the canzone in the third act, "La donna è mobile", which are among the most technically demanding in the opera. Vocally and visually, Buszewski has captured the complexity of the Duke: the affability, the subliminal cruelty and the erotic energy that he radiates in the moments he has chosen.

  • Chevalier de la Force | Dialogues des Carmélites | Poulenc

    Metropolitan Opera
    Jan 2023

    • Buszewski, with his ringing, clear tenor, made a dashing, handsome Chevalier de la Force, who was the perfect counterpart to Pérez’s Blanche. Buszewski’s Chevalier was impudent and prone to action, while she was reticent and contemplative. The scene when he comes to the convent and pleads with her to flee with him was the most touchingly heartfelt in the opera.
