Anniversary concert: Golden sound of the tenors illuminates Tulln!

Tulln an der Donau, Österreich - On July 2, 2025, a very special concert took place in the picturesque backdrop of the Donaubühne Tulln. On the occasion of the 35th anniversary of the first appearance of the legendary "Three Tenöres", Luciano Pavarotti, Plácido Domingo and José Carreras, a anniversary concert with the title "Götterklang meets Danube gold" and at the same time honored the upcoming 90th birthday of Pavarotti in October.

Originally, Joseph Calleja, Arturo Chacón-Cruz and Bogdan Volkov should enter the stage, but unfortunately Joseph Calleja failed due to illness. Only the two tenors Arturo Chacón-Cruz and Bogdan Volkov performed, who captivated the audience with arias of Mozart, Verdi, and Bizet as well as with Broadway classics such as "New York, New York" and "My Way". They were accompanied by the Nibelungenphilharmonie Austria under the direction of Michael Güttler, who can look back on a long and successful cooperation with the Vienna State Opera.
