Vita

Jonathan Winell is a laureate and participant in numerous competitions. He won the second prize at the Leyla Gencer Voice Competition in Istanbul, was a semifinalist at the Mirjam Helin International Singing Competition in Helsinki, and a finalist for the Eastern Region at the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions.

 

He hails from New York and is a graduate of the Hartt School as well as a former Artist-in-Residence at the Academy of Vocal Arts. He studied Italian at the Scuola Leonardo da Vinci and attended the Florence Voice Seminar and the Bel Canto Institute.

 

After stints as a member of the International Opera Studio at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden in Berlin, the Theater Regensburg, and Theater Magdeburg, Jonathan Winell has been working as a freelance artist since the 2022/2023 season.

 

Highlights of recent seasons include Rodolfo in LA BOHÈME, Pang in TURANDOT, Ernesto in DON PASQUALE, Tamino in DIE ZAUBERFLÖTE, Cassio in OTELLO, and Narraboth in SALOME at Theater Magdeburg; Pang in TURANDOT at the Deutsche Oper am Rhein in Düsseldorf; Steuermann in DER FLIEGENDE HOLLÄNDER at the Landestheater Detmold; Brighella in ARIADNE AUF NAXOS and 1st Armed Man in DIE ZAUBERFLÖTE at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden in Berlin; Tamino in DIE ZAUBERFLÖTE at the Oper Wuppertal; Un Araldo and Il Re Gonzaga in Franco Faccio’s AMLETO at the Bregenzer Festspiele in Austria; Baroncelli in RIENZI during his debut at Lincoln Center in New York; and Rinuccio in GIANNI SCHICCHI in Regensburg. At the Savonlinna Opera Festival, he appeared as Pedrillo in DIE ENTFÜHRUNG AUS DEM SERAIL and as Pang in TURANDOT at the Opera im Steinbruch (St. Margarethen). Due to the pandemic, his guest engagements at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden as Singer in DER ROSENKAVALIER and Marzio in the new production of MITRIDATE in the 2020/2021 season were unfortunately canceled.

 

Jonathan Winell has collaborated with conductors such as Daniel Barenboim, Zubin Mehta, Sebastian Weigle, Leo Hussain, Wayne Marshall, Christopher Moulds, Eve Queler, John Nelson, and John Baril, and has participated in masterclasses with Jane Klaviter, Bob Morrison, and Margaret Singer.
