Vita

German tenor Andreas Hermann commands a wide-ranging repertoire extending from the lyric tenor roles to characterful parts in the German and late-Romantic repertoire. His most recent engagements include Richard in Lortzing’s REGINA at Oper Leipzig, as well as the Officer in Hindemith’s CARDILLAC and King Ring in FRITJOF SAGA at Aalto-Theater Essen. At Staatstheater Darmstadt, he made his role debut as Tristan in a new production of TRISTAN UND ISOLDE; he also returned to Essen as the Drum Major in WOZZECK. At Landestheater Linz, he appeared as Paul in Korngold’s DIE TOTE STADT.

Guest engagements have taken Andreas Hermann to Staatsoper Stuttgart, the state theatres in Wiesbaden and Schwerin, Oper Frankfurt, Oper Köln, Komische Oper Berlin and Staatsoper Hannover, as well as to companies in Gothenburg, Bern and Innsbruck.

A major chapter in his career was his tenure at the Nationaltheater Mannheim, where he was an ensemble member from 2014 to 2020. There he expanded his repertoire to include Pinkerton (MADAMA BUTTERFLY), Paolo (FRANCESCA DA RIMINI), Herodes (SALOME), Dionysos (DIE BASSARIDEN), Pollione (NORMA), Max (DER FREISCHÜTZ), Florestan (FIDELIO) and the Emperor (DIE FRAU OHNE SCHATTEN). Previously, from 2004 to 2013, he was a member of the ensemble at Aalto-Theater Essen, where he performed virtually all the major lyric roles of his Fach, including Tamino, Don Ottavio, Ferrando, Fenton, Walther von der Vogelweide, the Italian Singer in DER ROSENKAVALIER, the Painter (LULU), Nadir (LES PÊCHEURS DE PERLES), Alfred (DIE FLEDERMAUS), Camille de Rosillon (DIE LUSTIGE WITWE), Lenski (EUGENE ONEGIN) and Alfredo (LA TRAVIATA). His first permanent engagement took him to Theater Bern, having made his operatic debut at Oper Frankfurt in 2002.

Andreas Hermann has worked with directors including Stefan Herheim, Hans Neuenfels, Barrie Kosky, Christoph Nel, Dietrich Hilsdorf, Tatjana Gürbaca, Yona Kim and Michael Sturminger, and with conductors including Paolo Carignani, Sebastian Weigle, Miguel Gómez-Martínez, Marc Piollet, Srboljub Dinic, Manfred Honeck, Dan Ettinger, Stefan Soltesz, Rubén Dubrovsky and Alexander Soddy.

Equally at home on the concert platform, Hermann’s repertoire ranges from Bach, Handel, Mozart and Rossini to Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9, Dvořák’s REQUIEM and the major oratorios of Mendelssohn. He has performed with orchestras including the Essener Philharmoniker, Museumsorchester Frankfurt, Nordwestdeutsche Philharmonie and the orchestra of the Nationaltheater Mannheim.

Andreas Hermann studied with Prof. Reginaldo Pinheiro at the universities of music in Karlsruhe, where he graduated with distinction in voice and music education, and Freiburg, specialising in opera and music theatre, as well as with Paolo de Napoli in Florence. Further artistic influences include masterclasses with Gundula Janowitz and Hilde Zadek. Since 2018, he has worked with Prof. Fenna Kügel Seifried.
