About Anne

German Soprano Anne Schwanewilms performs to great acclaim at the world’s major opera houses and concert venues.

Her repertoire of operatic heroines extends beyond those of Strauss to include, among others, Elsa (Lohengrin), Elisabeth (Tannhäuser), Madame Lidoine (Dialogues des Carmélites) and Marie (Wozzeck).

In concert, Anne Schwanewilms sings works by Berg, Mahler, Strauss, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Schoenberg, Verdi and Wagner. She is considered one of today’s finest lieder recitalists, appearing regularly with Malcolm Martineau, Charles Spencer and Roger Vignoles, both in Europe and abroad.

In 2002, Anne Schwanewilms was named Opernwelt’s Singer of the Year. She features on the Houston Symphony Wozzeck recording (Naxos) which won Opera Recording (20th and 21st Century) at the 2017 ECHO Klassik Awards.

    • Mit der Sopranistin Anne Schwanewilms hatte man sich für eine stimmlich klugagierende Hauptdarstellerin entschieden; dieser Schönberg kann keine Divagebrauchen, sondern nur eine furchtlose Charakter-Sängerin, die dem erratischflatternden Text des Plots – Frau irrt durch die Nacht, auf der Suche nach ihremGeliebten und findet letztlich seine Leiche – und den heiklen Anforderungendieser Partie dennoch Halt und Form geben kann.
