Christian Hübner Bass Opera - Welcome!
SEVILLA - TEATRO DE LA MAESTRANZA - GÖTTERDÄMMERUNG
Likewise, the evil Hagen is entrusted to a bass tessitura with low registers difficult to interpret within the big orchestra. Christian Hübner, a singer specialized in Wagnerian roles, truely embodied this role, being very much liked by the audience.

Christian Hübner was back demonstrating his versatility as Hagen in Götterdämmerung, completing a marathon effort of one role in each opera (Fafner, Hunding, Fafner again and Hagen). Hübner is a giant of a man whose physique is more suited to the giant Fafner than the dwarf-born Hagen, but both vocally and in acting, he proved a credible evil scheming genius.

Many highlights remained. My own favourite, probably idiosyncratically, was the dying Fafner, changed from dragon to his original giant form, telling Siegfried the story of what has happened. Christian Hübner sung elegiacally, with true nobility and strength, contrasting with Fafner's noisy bluster when in dragon form
