Franz Schreker "Die Gezeichneten"
Alviano Salvago

"... Andreas Conrad provided Alviano with a character tenor, which can also reach out in more heroic districts. So the role was in best hands with him and that Conrad also mastered the higher parts of his role without trouble, was another plus ."

Das Opernglas November 2017, Th. Baltensweiler

"Alviano is played enthusiastically by Andreas Conrad, who turns the ugly old man into a special stage character right up to the silencing conclusion."

Tagblatt Sankt Gallen, 18.09.2017, Martin Preisser

"... Above all, it is the voice of the expressive tenor Andreas Conrad, who gives the figure of Alviano Salvago the gruesome profile. The listener needs to get used to it, sharp and piercing - exactly as it must sound for a singer who sang the part of Mime in Wagner's "Siegfried" at the Bayreuth Festival in the tradition of Heinz Zednik. There is nothing bad about this, it is highly characteristic. And so vivid created as Schreker's figure Alviano is: The loser, who comes upon a frighteningly falling path, without realizing it, in the end even the accused, finally the doubly humiliated - from his rival and his beloved -. The fact that he has finally put on his fool cap and fallen into madness is nothing but understandable."

"..In St Gallen , (where he also deeply impressed as Herod in SALOME) Andreas Conrad succeeded again brilliantly as actor and singer with his interpretation of the complex Character Alviano Salvago. Outstanding his diction, the security of the intonation, with which he mastered the high Tessitura without sounding hysterical or too exalted. The moment when he realized that Carlotta had not wanted him but Tamare, and longed in her death hour for him , belonged for me to the most touching moments of the evening. As the madness slowly spread over Andreas Conrad's face, that was simple breathtakingly well performed"
