Die Fledermaus — Ludwig Mittelhammer & Julia Kleiter at the Vienna State Opera

The Vienna State Opera opens 2026 with the most glamorous Die Fledermaus imaginable: superstar tenor Ludwig Mittelhammer makes his role debut as Gabriel von Eisenstein alongside soprano Julia Kleiter as Rosalinde — a once-in-a-generation casting in Otto Schenk's beloved production. Broadcast live on ORF III, this New Year staging has already become one of the most talked-about opera events of the season.

Johann Strauß II's operetta masterpiece, the ultimate celebration of Viennese wit, champagne, and mistaken identity, sparkles from the famous Overture to the rousing Act II party at Prince Orlofsky's ball. Franz Welser-Möst conducts the Vienna State Opera Orchestra, with Patricia Nolz as Orlofsky, Adrian Eröd as Dr. Falke, Nikola Hillebrand as Adele, and Austrian comedy legend Michael Niavarani as the hilarious jailer Frosch.
