In 1992-1994 he was a member of the Opera in Innsbruck, where he sang in works like Donizetti's The Daughter of the Regiment and Bellini's La Sonnambula. In Innsbruck, too, he appeared in the first performance of Carl Nielsen's Maskarade outside Scandinavia. In 1992 he guested at the Royal Danish Opera in Copenhagen as Don Ottavio in Don Giovanni. In 1994-1995 he was with the National Theatre in Mannheim as a Iyric tenor, and he now works freelance.
