John Br\u00f6cheler was one of the great Dutch opera singers of his generation. With his distinctive voice, commanding stage presence and great musicality, he performed many roles on national and international stages throughout his long career. John was also connected to Opera Zuid. With his wealth of experience and his great love of the profession, he made a valuable contribution to our opera history. We remember him as a passionate artist for whom music, text and theatre were inseparably intertwined."}
