Hans Beirer

Hans Beirer (23 June 1911 – 24 June 1993, in Berlin) was an Austrian tenor. In his early career he worked as a lyric tenor but as he aged his voice developed into Heldentenor which enabled him to become a celebrated performer in the operas of Richard Wagner. He was a resident artist of the Deutsche Oper Berlin for more than forty years. He also concurrently worked as a resident artist at the Hamburg State Opera (1958) and Vienna State Opera (1962-1987), and made numerous appearances as a guest artist at opera houses internationally, including La Scala, the Paris Opera, the Royal Opera House in London, the Teatro Colón, La Monnaie, the New York City Opera, and the Bayreuth Festival among others.
