The highly acclaimed performance featured Jonas Kaufmann in his role debut as the lead role of Otello, and will be performed during the Royal Opera's Japan tour this September. Kaufmann, who sang Otello, the most difficult role for tenors, requiring rich expressiveness, a strong voice, and a wide vocal range from baritone to tenor, demonstrated powerful singing and superb acting skills comparable to those of past great singers such as Vinay, Vickers, and Domingo, and has been acclaimed as \"the Otello singer\" who has \"etched his name in the history books. He has been acclaimed as \"the 'Otero singer' who has carved his name in history. The Italian baritone Marco Vratogna's Iago, who is currently on the rise, and Maria Agresta's Desdemona, another Italian flower, are also attractive co-starring singers. Warner's effective use of lighting on the dark stage to dramatize Otello's psychology with shadows and light, and Pappano's rich and crisp music-making to reproduce the rich and shaded orchestration of Verdi's late period with no less charm. Pappano's conducting reveals the essence of Verdi's greatest work of his lifetime.
