|years_active = }} Paul Hansen (3 April 1886 – 11 November 1967) was a Danish opera singer and actor. Hansen started his opera career as a tenor but later increased his range to take on baritone roles. In 1917 Hansen, now working in Berlin, branched into silent movies and in 1919 took on the romantic lead in ''The Mistress of the World''. ==Opera career== Hansen's initial occupation was as a copper-engraver but he harboured desires to become an opera singer.〔 He studied in Copenhagen at the Royal Chamber under the tutelage of baritone Albert Hoeberg (1879–1949) and the tenor Hermann Spiro.〔 Hansen made his operatic stage debut in Copenhagen at the Royal Danish Theatre in 1908 as a tenor, when he appeared as Sverkel in the romantic opera Liden Kirsten.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Opera Singers - H - Page 1 )〕 He later travelled to Berlin, where he studied under both Louise Reuss-Belce and Lilli Lehmann.〔 He extended his vocal range during his time in Berlin and by 1919 he was able to take on both tenor and baritone roles. During his career he mastered 150 roles using both singer ranges, but tended to prefer operettas.〔 As a young tenor he was popular in heroic leads and appeared in several classical Wagner interpretations, including the title roles in ''Lohengrin'', ''Tannhäuser'' and ''Parsifal'' and as Walther von Stolzing in ''Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg''.〔 Hansen also performed the roles of Don José in Bizet's ''Carmen'' and the hunter Konrad in the romantic opera ''Hans Heiling'' by Heinrich Marschner. As a baritone he took on the title character in Verdi's ''Rigoletto''.〔 In 1925, with his film career behind him, Hansen took on the role as Director of the State Theatre of Thuringia, based in Gera. He held the role until 1930, rarely appearing on stage after this period. When his singing career ended, he returned to Copenhagen where he became a music teacher. He later moved to Helsinki where he died in 1967 at the age of 81.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paul Hansen (tenor)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
