2010 Guest SoloistMarkus Brutscher Markus Brutscher was born in Landsberg, Bavaria and was brought up in Augsburg. He received training in early music when he sang with the boys choir at the Augsburg Cathedral and the Regensburg Cathedral. He later studied with Norma Sharp at the Berlin Hans Eisler Hochschule für Musik, then in London with Rudolph Piernay, and finally in Maastricht, where he studied voice with Mya Besselink. During his studies, Markus Brutscher was amongst the most in-demand tenors in the country. He has performed at all the major music capitals in Europe, the United States of America and Asia. Markus Brutscher regularly works with leading orchestras in Europe and America, as well as with leading conductors such as Marc Minkowski, Alessandro de Marci, Thomas Hengelbrock, Frieder Bernius, Peter Neumann, Roland Wilson, Michael Schneider, Martin Haselböck and Helmut Müller-Brühl. Even though Markus Brutscher is known as a specialist in early music, he also manages to combine all types and styles of music - from early baroque to contemporary - into his repertoire, as well as constantly developing his operatic repertoire. In recent years, the Opera has become a more significant part of Markus Brutscher’s career. He has performed in many opera productions, some of which include Traetta’s Antigona (Kreon/Adastro) and Mozart’s Così fan tutte (Ferrando), and he has had guest performances in Japan, Brecht/Weil’s Mahagony (Jack/Toby) in Basel, in Carl Maria von Weber’s Freischütz (Max) and Hugo von Hoffmannsthal’s Ariadne auf Naxos (Scaramuccio), as well as at Teatro Real in Madrid and at the Opera Nacional de Paris in Mozarts Zauberflöte (Monostatos), in the spectacular stage performance by La Fura Dels Baus conducted by Marc Minkowski. In 2009, Markus Brutscher made his debut with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Vladimir Jurowski, in the opera Historia by D. Johann Fausten at the Royal Festival Hall London. The musical press are unanimous in their praise for Markus Brutscher’s musical ability and the remarkable timbre of his voice, as well as his vocal techniques and overwhelming stylistic sovereignty in all languages. He has also found international acknowledgement for his high level of commitment to contemporary music. Markus Brutscher has made more than 50 recordings with Sony Classic, EMI, Capriccio and Thorofon, which show his versatility as a singer. His latest CD productions include Vivaldi Vesper conducted by Roland Wilson, Zaide with the Wiener Akademie conducted by Martin Haselböck, Mendessohn’s Paulus conducted by Doris Hagel, and the new solo release, Bleibt ihr Engel, bleibt bei mir with the Orchestra Le Chardon. |
