On the Kaufmann unofficial page:
23.6.2016, Paris, Théâtre des Champs-Élysées, Lied von der Erde, + sinfonische Musik (beide Stimmen, Tenor und Bariton)
Did you ever hear of such a thing? Translation. Jonas Kaufmann will sing both the tenor and the baritone parts in Das Lied von der Erde by Mahler. Ach du lieber.
Of course I am only aware of a Das Lied von der Erde that's for tenor and MEZZO.

Das Lied von der Erde can also be sung by a bariton and tenor (instead of alt and tenor): https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Das_Lied_von_der_Erde
Yes, I know, and it frequently is. I never go when this happens. As a former mezzo, I don't like it when men take our parts. I never go to Fledermaus when a man sings Orlovsky, e.g. I would probably make an exception for Jonas.
well then enjoy!
