About the soloists:

Francesca Tiburzi was signed by Christian Thielemann for the Semperoper in Dresden, where she regularly sings the greatest Puccini operettas and is a prominent soloist throughout Europe.
She was seen at the Bellini Theatre in Catania as Anna Boleyn and as Violetta in La Traviata. She performed as Tosca and appeared on stage at the Metz Opera as Nedda. She performed as Giorgetta in Puccini's one-act opera "Il tabarro" as well as the two-act opera "Paggliacci".

Sungho Kim is the ideal tenor for Nessun dorma – Kalaf's aria from Turandot.
The young Korean tenor performed at the Queen Elisabeth Competition in Brussels and won the 2023 BBC World Championship for Opera Singers in Cardiff and is currently a young star of the Dortmund Opera, where he made his Puccini tenor debut as Rodolfo in La Bohème.
Christian Thielemann conducted the Vienna New Year's Concert 2024.
