In the upcoming season, he can be seen as Masetto in Zurich's new production of Mozart's
Don Giovanni with fellow barihunk Peter Mattei in the title role, Ruben Drole as Leporello, and hunkentenor Pavol Breslik as Don Ottavio. He'll also be joining two other barihunks in a new production of Gounod's
Faust. Anstine will be singing the role of Wagner alongside Elliot Madore and Kyle Ketelson. We can't wait to get a backstage picture of that trio!
Next season he can also be seen alongside the great mezzo Cecilia Bartoli in a Christof Loy production of Handel's
Alcina. Check out the entire 2013/2014 season at the Opernhaus
