🌟 Wonderful recognition for our tenor @sahelasalam!

We are thrilled to share that Sahel Salam has been selected by two distinguished opera critics, Alexander Dick and Georg Rudiger, in the Emerging Artist of the Year (Nachwuchskünstler des Jahres) category of the prestigious Opernwelt Critics’ Poll 2026! Georg Rudiger particularly praised Sahel’s outstanding debut in the title role of Massenet’s Werther at Theater Freiburg, describing it as a “großartiges Werther-Debüt” (magnificent Werther debut). Being recognized by two critics in one of the opera world’s most respected annual surveys is a remarkable achievement and a wonderful acknowledgment of Sahel’s artistic talent. Congratulations, dear Sahel! We are incredibly proud of you and look forward to your continued success! 👏🎶 #SahelSalam #Opernwelt #Werther #TheaterFreiburg #kanttilamanagement

Can’t get enough of @clemensfieguthmusiker?

Neither can we! Before his second concert with @tn_los last Sunday, Director of Operations Andrew Liefländer sat down with Clemens to talk about the previous night’s concert and how he was preparing for another performance so soon after the first one. Congratulations on two very successful concerts!

Our wonderful conductor, @clemensfieguthmusiker is preparing for his next big concert with Theater Nordhausen and Loh-Orchester Sondershausen.

A sparkling program of Beethoven, Franck, and Weber marks the theater’s 2026 season opening. Earlier this week, Director of Operations Andrew Liefländer sat down with Clemens to ask all about the concert, his goals, and his sweaty relationship with Beethoven For tickets and more information, visit @tn_los

🎭✨ Congratulations on a fantastic fliegende Holländer premiere to conductor Clemens Fieguth and tenor Brett Sprague!

Before the curtain went up at the Staatstheater Kassel, our Director of Operations, Andrew Liefländer, sat down with the two of them for a very off-the-cuff interview (… that’s the term we’re going for 😄) to chat about working together, what they were looking forward to in the performance, and a few things in between. There was plenty of laughter, a little pre-premiere energy, and a glimpse behind the scenes. 🎶 If you’ve ever wondered what the atmosphere at Kanttila Management is like between our artists and managers — this is pretty much it. ❤️
