Sexy Swede Johan Rydh






Johan Rydh was born in 1967 in Järfälla, Sweden and made his debut as a boy soprano at The Stockholm Opera House in Carmen. He went on to study at the Stockholm Music High School and "Opera Studio 67" and graduated from Gothenburg Opera University in 1995.

He has performed primarily in Scandinavia and has become known as a Gluck specialist. He recently completed a run in Menotti's "The Consul" at the Folkoperan in Stockholm. He has performed a number of barihunk roles, including Escamillo in Carmen, Don Giovanni, Achilla in Giulio Cesare in Egitto and Tarquinius in The Rape of Lucretia.

The sexy pictures above are from him performing as Achilla. One thing we know for sure, we like him in a tee shirt.

Peter Mattei in Onegin and Don Giovanni

This post is in response to the numerous demands for the Swedish baritone Peter Mattei. We've been reluctant to post him, but he is particularly sexy in the Onegin clip and sings quite beautifully.

Mattei studied at the Royal Music and Opera Academies in Stockholm and made his début in "La finta giardiniera" at the Drottningholm Court Theatre in 1990. He has appeared in leading rôles in The Bacchae (with Ingmar Bergman), Die Zauberflöte, The Maid of Orléans, Don Carlos, Yevgeny Onegin, Le nozze di Figaro, Il barbiere di Siviglia, Don Giovanni, La Bohème, Tannhäuser, and L’elisir d’amore at the Royal Swedish Opera.

He has recently sung both Giovanni and Onegin, but we're looking forward to his Billy Budd in Frankfurt in next year.
