Il Duca di Mantova | Rigoletto | Verdi
Leipzig OperaMar 2024 - Jun 2024Piotr Buszewski stellte den Herzog von Mantua als äußerlich liebenswürdig dar, verbarg aber kaum die Bereitschaft der Figur, seine Machtposition zu nutzen, um andere zu manipulieren, damit sie ihm geben, was er will. Buszewskis reiche Tenorstimme ist für die Ballade im ersten Akt „Questa o quella per me pari sono“ und die Canzone im dritten Akt „La donna è mobile“, die zu den technisch anspruchsvollsten der Oper gehören, ideal geeignet. Stimmlich und visuell hat Buszewski die Komplexität des Herzogs erfasst: die Umgänglichkeit, die unterschwellige Grausamkeit und die erotische Energie, die er in den von ihm gewählten Momenten ausstrahlt. Piotr Buszewski portrayed the Duke of Mantua as outwardly amiable, but barely concealed the character's willingness to use his position of power to manipulate others into giving him what he wants. Buszewski's rich tenor voice is ideally suited to the ballad in the first act, "Questa o quella per me pari sono", and the canzone in the third act, "La donna è mobile", which are among the most technically demanding in the opera. Vocally and visually, Buszewski has captured the complexity of the Duke: the affability, the subliminal cruelty and the erotic energy that he radiates in the moments he has chosen.

Chevalier de la Force | Dialogues des Carmélites | Poulenc
Metropolitan OperaJan 2023Buszewski, with his ringing, clear tenor, made a dashing, handsome Chevalier de la Force, who was the perfect counterpart to Pérez’s Blanche. Buszewski’s Chevalier was impudent and prone to action, while she was reticent and contemplative. The scene when he comes to the convent and pleads with her to flee with him was the most touchingly heartfelt in the opera.

Tamino | Die Zauberflöte | Mozart
Metropolitan OperaDec 2023Mozart’s Tamino is one of the most beautiful roles written for a tenor and Piotr Buszewski as Tamino reminded listeners of this fact. Buszewski’s voice is pure, resonant, and resilient as he sings. ... In moments, one might have wondered if Tamino had ever sounded this honest and soulful.
