Heinz Zednik
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Heinz Zednik (b. February 21, 1940) is an Austrian operatic tenor, closely associated with the character tenor roles of Wagner such as Mime and Loge (Der Ring des Nibelungen) and David (Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg). He is also distinguished in roles such as Valzacchi (Der Rosenkavalier), Monostatos (The Magic Flute), Pedrillo (Die Entführung aus dem Serail), the Scribe (Khovanshchina) and the Director (Luciano Berio's Un re in ascolto). He appeared at the Bayreuth Festival in the 1970s, and was seen as the successor to Gerhard Stolze. During his time at the festival, he sung Mime in Patrice Chéreau's widely praised 1976 centenary production of the Ring cycle.
