Jonas Kaufmann

Jonas Kaufmann, Tenor
Helmut Deutsch, Piano

When two exceptional artists of such brilliance come together, musical magic is created. The world star Jonas Kaufmann and his long-time piano partner Helmut Deutsch present an evening of songs with special intensity – featuring works by Robert Schumann, Franz Liszt, and others.

Their shared history began during Kaufmann's studies in the song class of Helmut Deutsch at the University of Music and Performing Arts Munich. Today, decades later, Jonas Kaufmann and Helmut Deutsch stand on stage as a perfectly attuned duo – a musical conversation between two artists who understand each other intuitively. In 2026, when Helmut Deutsch celebrates his 80th birthday, this concert will also serve as a tribute to one of the most significant artistic friendships of our time – and to a life dedicated to song.
