Reviews & Press
Mozart - Così fan tutte - Guglielmo
Leurs fiancés Guglielmo et Ferrando sont d’abord un régal de complicité, les voix s’accordant à merveille dès les trios initiaux : richesse des harmoniques, timbres superbes ! Le baryton Yannick Debus enchante aussi par ses dons de comédien, dans un « Non siate ritrosi » anthologique, colorant chaque mot avec intelligence. S’il n’est pas évident que l’air alternatif « Rivolgete a lui lo sguardo » – plus exigeant techniquement – lui convienne aussi bien, il déploie un phrasé souverain dans le duo « Il core vi dono ». Déjà, sa stature sonore dévoile la fibre d’un Don Giovanni versant juvénile. Rouspéteur à souhait mais toujours distingué de ligne, il fait chavirer la salle dans un « Donne mie la fate a tanti » truculent en diable.

Orff- Carmina Burana
Waren er dan helemaal geen lichtpuntjes? Ja, gelukkig zong de Duitse bariton Yannick Debus zijn hondsmoeilijke partij fenomenaal: zoveel kleuren, zoveel klankschoonheid… wat een verademing!

Bembo L’Ercole amante
A tout seigneur, tout honneur : Yannick Debus campe un Ercole plein d’autorité. Verticalité, beau métal de la projection sont mis en valeur par le gras du timbre. Son ultime aria, celle de sa mort, est particulièrement réussie

Rihm - Jakob Lenz - Lenz
Yannick Debus, as Jakob Lenz, rises to the challenge of this difficult material. Debus was fantastic in the title role, his standing ovation well-earned. He brought deftness and complexity to both the spoken and sung parts of the role, whether clambering up and down towers of boxes or curled up in the foetal position, whether delivering the text in a broken whisper or hitting the high notes with aplomb. More importantly, perhaps, he makes you care about Lenz, unable to dismiss him as a madman as his contemporaries do. (There is a genuinely chilling moment in the final scene when the ghosts are screaming and no one but Lenz can hear them.) In the end, this remains the power of Jakob Lenz: to destabilise, to tug at the heartstrings, to leave you haunted.

Innsbrucker Festwochen - Ottone - Emireno
Alone among the singers, Yannick Debus, essaying the role of Emireno, delievered the most consistent performance of the evening. He has a strong stage presence and is a good actor.
