Werner van Mechelen, bass-baritone the scope of bass-baritone Werner van Mechelen's musical activities is all-encompassing. On the one hand he has sung many of the major parts in the opera repertoire; on the other hand he loves lieder and oratorios. His repertoire starts with Telemann and Bach, and goes, via the major opera roles in Mozart (like Figaro and Don Giovanni), Puccini (Gianni Schicchi), Verdi (Falstaff, AÃ¯da), Alban Berg (Wozzeck, Lulu) and Ligeti (Le Grand Macabre), to world premieres of works by Philippe Boesmans, among others. One of his greatest loves is the German repertoire, most of all that of Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss. He has been Wolfram (TannhÃ¤user), Amfortas (Parsifal), Kurwenal (Tristan und Isolde), Alberich (Ring des Nibelungen); Mandryka (Arabella), Faninal (Der Rosenkavalier) etc.
