Presentation of a new artist!
Ascolta Artists is delighted to welcome mezzo-soprano Anna Werle to our roster ✨
A Berlin-born mezzo-soprano, Anna has been acclaimed for her wide-ranging repertoire — from Baroque to Strauss, Wagner, Henze and Benjamin. In the 2024/25 season she made debuts as Fenena (Nabucco) at the Arena di Verona under *Pinchas Steinberg — a performance praised by La Stampa as “a truly beautiful and accomplished Fenena” — as well as Prinz Orlofsky (Die Fledermaus) at the NCPA Beijing under Marc Minkowski, 3. Magd (Elektra) at the Teatro Filarmonico di Verona under Michael Balke, and as soloist in Mahler’s Das Lied von der Erde at the Opernhaus Stuttgart with the Stuttgart Ballett.
Her recent highlights include La Cieca (La Gioconda, cover) under Antonio Pappano at the Osterfestspiele Salzburg, Adalgisa (Norma) at Opera på Skäret, Waltraute (Die Walküre) under Gianandrea Noseda at the Opernhaus Zürich, Angelina (La Cenerentola) at the Sofia Opera, and Brangäne (Tristan und Isolde) at the Sofia Opera, Teatro Petruzzelli Bari, and Oper Leipzig. She has also sung Charlotte (Werther), Marcellina (Le Nozze di Figaro), Rossweiße (Die Walküre) in Stuttgart, as well as Siegrune (Die Walküre) at the Tiroler Festspiele Erl.
Anna has worked with many of the world’s leading conductors — including Antonio Pappano, Gianandrea Noseda, Marc Minkowski, Pinchas Steinberg, Marc Albrecht, Cornelius Meister, Constantin Trinks, Marc Piollet, Ivan Fischer, Thomas Guggeis, Dirk Kaftan, Ariane Matiakh — and with stage directors such as Brigitte Fassbaender, Andreas Homoki, Oliver Mears, Yannis Kokkos, Nicola Raab and Stephan Kimmig.
On the concert stage she has performed at the Gewandhaus Leipzig, Konzerthaus Berlin, Berliner Philharmonie, Berliner Dom, and the Festival Klosterneuburg, in works ranging from Verdi’s Requiem and Saint-Saëns’ Oratorio de Noël to Bach’s Weihnachtsoratorium and Mozart’s Requiem, as well as Mahler’s orchestral songs and Wagner’s Wesendonck-Lieder.
We are thrilled to collaborate with Anna Werle and look forward to her exciting projects ahead! 🎶
