I started singing at an early age, receiving formal lessons at the local music school ‘Vicco von Bülow’ in Brandenburg from the age of 12. I quickly realised that singing was one of my favourite activities and that I wanted to pursue it at a professional level. Having focussed on songs with my first teacher, I was gradually eased into singing opera repertoire after switching to a different teacher a few years later. I particularly enjoy the storytelling aspect and the dramatic element when singing opera arias.
In 2014, I took part in the music competition ‘Jugend musiziert’ winning the first prize in the city of Brandenburg an der Havel. In 2020, I was once again awarded the first prize in the same competition, but unfortunately I was unable to proceed to the subsequent rounds at state and national level since they were cancelled due to the COVID pandemic. In 2018, I was offered the opportunity to work with a professional orchestra for the first time. Singing the role of Papageno in a series of extracts from ‘The Magic Flute’ as part of a music festival, I was accompanied by the Brandenburg Symphony Orchestra under Prof. Peter Gülke. In addition to performing in numerous concerts locally, I also gained concert experience singing at a number of high-profile events at Berlin Brandenburg Airport in December 2021.
I am currently being taught by Sebastian Noack, former professor of vocal studies at the Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler in Berlin. In recent months, I have also been attending a conservatoire preparation course at the music school in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, Berlin, as well as receiving additional consultation lessons from a number of renowned professors from the Berlin University of the Arts and Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler, Berlin.
