Quirijn de Lang - baritone
Quirijn de Lang is widely known as an exceptional singing actor in a wide and varied repertoire. Equally successful as Ambroise Thomas’ Hamlet and Fred/Petrucchio in Cole Porter's Kiss Me, Kate, he is at home in the traditional operatic baritone repertoire as well as the world of operetta and classic musicals.
Showcasing this wide variety of styles, recent projects include Zurga/Les Pêcheurs de Perles, Germont/La Traviata, Don Alfonso/Così fan tutte, Oppenheimer/Doctor Atomic, Randy Curtis/Lady in the Dark, Papageno/The Magic Flute, and Frederick Egermann/A Little Night Music.

On September 15 Quirijn presents a Lieder recital at the Dutch Centre in London with pianist Daan Boertien. The programme, named Away Home, touches on the experiences of being an expat and features songs by Schumann, Wolf, Duparc, Chausson, Rachmaninoff and Tchaikovsky, as well as lesser-known gems by Robert Stolz, Ned Rorem and André Messager.
In the winter season Quirijn returns to Opera North where he will take on the role of Samuel Cooper in Kurt Weill's Love Life. The production is working together with the Kurt Weill Foundation to create the first complete recording of the work.
