The conductor Robert Papocsi has announced the death of his wife Judith Halasz, a versatile and well-liked opera singer.

Judith was a member of the Vienna State Opera ensemble from 2001-2003 and 2007-2008, and a freelance performer ever since.

She leaves a young son.

Judith was the daughter of the Vienna opera conductor Michael Halasz.

Our sympathies to the bereaved family.
