Lehman's next Wagner performances were in the title role in Tannhäuser in March 2007.[7] A year later he made his both his Metropolitan Opera and role debuts in Tristan und Isolde.[8] He repeated the role with the Mariinsky Opera in June 2008 and with Leipzig Opera in January 2009, and gave concert performances with the Philharmonia Orchestra throughout Europe in August and September 2010.[9] Further Wagner roles have been Siegmund in Die Walküre, also at the Met,[10] and a recording of the title role in Parsifal.[11]
After Ben Heppner dropped out of the Metropolitan Opera's 2010–2012 production of the Ring Cycle, it was announced that Lehman would sing Siegfried in both Siegfried in October 2011 and Götterdämmerung in January 2012.[13][14] In turn, Lehman himself had to drop out, citing illness, and both Siegfried roles were sung by his understudy, Jay Hunter Morris.[15][16][17]
