He begins the 2012/13 season with Bernstein's Chichester Psalms at the Berlin Music Festival. Followed by Porpora's Polifemo at Rokokotheater in Schwetzingen, which will be the German premiere of the opera. Afterwards he makes his debut in the new production of Handel's Xerxes at the Deutsche Oper am Rhein in Düsseldorf staged by Stefan Herheim. Concert engagements will take him to Winterthur and with Bach's Mass in B minor to Lucerne, before he performs Ottone in Handel's Agrippina in Giessen under the baton of Michael Hofstetter and returns to the Handel Festival in Halle singing Ruggiero in Alcina.

Among the most important engagements of the previous season are the new production of Cavalli's La Didone with Les Arts Florissants conducted by William Christie in Caen, Luxembourg and the Théâtre des Champs Elysées in Paris, the title role of Alessandro Scarlatti's Marco Attilio Regolo led by Rubén Dubrovsky in Schwetzingen, a recital accompanied by the Baroque Ensemble Concerto Grosso Friedrich at the Festspielhaus Baden-Baden, the gala of four countertenors in the Palace of Versailles and the new production of Alcina at Handel Festival in Halle 2012.

Purchar as later with Kurt Equiluz and Christine Schwarz in Vienna. Through first appearances with the Clemencic Consort and as a young winner of several competitions he quickly connected to the international opera and concert scene. Under conductors such as William Christie, Thomas Hengelbrock, Marc Minkowski, Riccardo Muti, Christophe Rousset and Michael Hofstetter and orchestras with historic instrument as the Balthasar Neumann Ensemble, Les Arts Florissants, Les Musiciens du Louvre Grenoble or the Bach Consort Wien he was a guest in major concert halls and opera houses, including the Musikverein in Vienna, Barbican Centre London, Lincoln Center New York, Gulbenkian Foundation in Lisbon, the Salzburg Pfingstfestival, the Teatro Real in Madrid, Theater an der Wien and Stuttgart State Opera.
