The German tenor tells Corriere della Sera that he is ready to return to singing after a four-month break caused by bleeding on his vocal cords.
He expects to appear as Lohengrin in Paris on January 18.
‘It was really tough,’ he says. ‘I love to sing and never before have I been forced to such a long break. It was not easy, but what else could I do? I tried to be patient and do what the doctor prescribed. And ignore the gossip going around about my health…. Christa Ludwig, the great mezzo-soprano, had the same problem. She warned me: Jonas, do not come back to sing before the swelling has completely subsided.’
