Vive la France: Nicolas Testé

NICOLAS TESTE AS OROVESO



The French bass Nicolas Testé is completing a run as Oroveso in Norma at the Chatelet in Paris. Testé studied piano, bassoon and music history before pursuing a career as a singer. He is best known in France and Holland where he has sung everything from baroque opera to modern pieces.

After his run in Norma, he heads back to Holland to sing Panthée in "Les troyens." He then returns to France, where he will portray Héraut in Honegger's "Jeanne d'Arc au bucher."
