Sebastian Hofmüller
He made his debut in 1874 at the Elysium-Theater in Munich in operetta (as Anton in Flotte Bursche by Suppé). He was then a chorister at various theater in southern Germany; gradually, he began to sing solo parts, and in 1878 had considerable success in Mainz as Pêcheur in Guillaume Tell. After (further or first?) vocal studies, he was hired by the Trier theater in 1879, where he made his debut as Lyonel. But though he sang the occasional main role, his specialty were comprimario and buffo parts for his entire career. |
