Abraham Bretón
Singer
The Mexican-Spanish tenor Abraham Bretón was a scholarship holder at the Academy of Vocal Arts (AVA) in Philadelphia and completed his training at the Santa Fe Opera, the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) and the Veracruz Institute of Music (ISMEV). From 2023 to 2026, he was a member of the Opera Studio at Frankfurt Opera, where he demonstrated his stylistic range in roles such as the Duke of Mantua (‘Rigoletto’), the Count of Gloria-Cassis (‘Les Brigands’) and Malcolm (‘Macbeth’). In 2025, he made his debut with Opera Australia as Don José (‘Carmen’) and performed at the Sydney Opera House and in Melbourne. He appeared as Nemorino in *L’elisir d’amore* at the Staatstheater Darmstadt and in *Die Zauberflöte* at the Hessisches Staatstheater Wiesbaden. His extensive repertoire includes roles such as Verdi’s Riccardo (‘Un ballo in maschera’), Macduff (‘Macbeth’), Rodolfo (‘Luisa Miller’), Manrico (‘Il trovatore’) and Alfredo (‘La traviata’), as well as Puccini’s Pinkerton (‘Madama Butterfly’) and Rodolfo (‘La Bohème’), as well as Roméo in Gounod’s *Roméo et Juliette* and roles from the zarzuela repertoire, including Rafael Ruiz in *El gato montés*.
At the MiR, Abraham Bretón can be seen for the first time as Cavaradossi in *Tosca*.
