I think that operetta has much higher demands than is often considered. If one performs this genre on a high level of quality, then it is sometimes even more demanding than opera. (JÖRG SCHNEIDER, INTERVIEW 2012)
 
The Austrian tenor Jörg Schneider has enjoyed a career that has flourished in Europe and especially in Italy, where he sang in almost every important operahouse. He started his career in 1995 as member of the Staatstheater Wiesbaden. From 1997 on till 2000 he was member of the Deutsche Oper am Rhein Düsseldorf. As a freelancer he sang Belmonte at the Deutsche Oper Berlin, Tamino at the Opernhaus Zürich and at the Teatro Communale  Firenze.
