Andrè Schuen

Barítono

Baritone Andrè Schuen, originally from La Val (South Tyrol), grew up speaking Ladin, Italian and German, a linguistic richness reflected in a repertoire ranging from bel canto and Lied to the operatic canon.

After initially training as a cellist, he studied singing at the Mozarteum in Salzburg. He is a regular guest at the opera houses of Vienna, Munich, Paris and Zurich, as well as Covent Garden, La Scala, the Teatro Real in Madrid and the Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona.

His notable roles include Don Giovanni, Almaviva, Guglielmo, Onegin, Ford, Rodrigo, Sharpless and Wolfram. He has collaborated with renowned conductors such as Simon Rattle, Andris Nelsons, Philippe Jordan, Daniel Harding, Fabio Luisi, Christian Thielemann, Riccardo Muti, Gianandrea Noseda and Teodor Currentzis.

Together with pianist Daniel Heide, he shares his passion for Lied on prestigious stages around the world.
