Zauberflöte"), the Bayerische Staatsoper ("Giuditta" and "Die schweigsame Frau") and the Wiener Staatsoper
("Die Entführung aus dem Serail").

Behle is also increasingly making a name for himself as a composer: After the arrangements for tenor and piano
trio "WinterreiseN" (Sony Classical), "Mein Hamburg" (Berlin Classics) and "Meine schönsten Weihnachtslieder"
(Sony Classical), he has now completed his first operetta "Hopfen und Malz" (hops and malt), whose premiere
is planned for 2022/23.

Müllerin" and Strauss Lieder (both Capriccio), Gluck "Arias" (Decca), Schubert "Arias" and "MoZart" (dhm)
received special attention. His second Strauss album "Un-Erhört" (Prospero Classical) with Oliver Schnyder at
the piano was awarded the Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik.
