The German tenor has pulled out of tonight’s Richard Strauss concert with bronchitis.

He has not been replaced. The concert is off. Here’s what the Barbican website says:

Jonas deeply regrets that because he has bronchitis this concert is cancelled. In due course we hope to reschedule this concert to a future date.

Ticketholders will receive a full refund to the original payment method by returning their tickets…

Korngold Schauspiel Overture
Strauss Symphonic Interlude from Intermezzo, Träumerei am Kamin
Strauss
‘Ruhe meine Seele’
‘Freundliche Vision’
‘Befreit’
‘Heimliche Aufforderung’
Elgar In the South
