Salzburg gave tenor weekend pass to close the Paris Olympics

When the Swiss French tenor Benjamin Bernheim sang the Hymn to Apollo at the Paris Olympics closing show he had been given a weekend leave of absence by the Salzburg Festival.

By rights he should have been singing in Tales of Hoffmann on Satursday night.

His Salzburg jump-in was Léo Vermot Desroches.
