In the 2025\/26 season, Uwe Schenker-Primus will appear at the Deutsches Nationaltheater Weimar in roles including Peter Besenbinder (H\u00e4nsel und Gretel), Professor Higgins (My Fair Lady), Giorgio Germont (La Traviata), and Adam\/the Judge in the new production Penthesilea & Der zerbrochene Krug. He will also take on the role of Hans Stadinger in Lortzing\u2019s Der Waffenschmied at the Musikalische Kom\u00f6die Leipzig as part of Lortzing 26 | Festival der Oper Leipzig.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

His repertoire spans an impressive range, including the Count (Der Wildsch\u00fctz, Le nozze di Figaro), Don Giovanni, the Speaker (Die Zauberfl\u00f6te), Onegin (Eugene Onegin), Danilo (The Merry Widow), Valentin (Faust), Don Magnifico and Lorenzo (La Cenerentola), Falke (Die Fledermaus), Pangloss (Candide), Sharpless (Madama Butterfly), Marcello (La Boh\u00e8me), Faninal (Der Rosenkavalier), Le Bailli (Werther), Aeneas (Dido and Aeneas), Wolfram (Tannh\u00e4user), the Herald (Lohengrin), the Music Master (Ariadne auf Naxos), and the title role in Verdi\u2019s Falstaff.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Important guest engagements have taken him to houses such as the Deutsche Oper Berlin (Le Bailli), Komische Oper Berlin (Falke), Staatsoperette Dresden (Sweeney Todd), Staatstheater Darmstadt (Danilo), and Theater Kiel (Baron von Gondremark), as well as frequent appearances at Stadttheater Bremerhaven and Mainfrankentheater W\u00fcrzburg. He has also performed open-air in roles such as Tevje (Fiddler on the Roof, Eutin Festival), the Robber Queen (The Snow Queen, Schloss Esterh\u00e1zy), Dulcamara (L\u2019elisir d\u2019amore), and multiple roles in Mozart\u2019s Die Zauberfl\u00f6te at the Oper im Steinbruch St. Margarethen.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Beyond the opera stage, Schenker-Primus maintains a wide-ranging concert and oratorio repertoire, from Monteverdi and Bach through Mendelssohn and Orff. Numerous world premieres highlight his strong commitment to contemporary music. As a recitalist, he has been particularly acclaimed for his interpretations of songs by Erich Wolfgang Korngold and Hans Pfitzner, which he recorded with pianist Klaus Simon for Naxos.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

He studied voice at the University of Music in W\u00fcrzburg, graduating in 2006. During his studies he was a scholarship holder of the Wagner Society and a prizewinner at several competitions. From 2005 to 2009 he was a member of the ensemble at the Mainfrankentheater W\u00fcrzburg before joining the ensemble of the Deutsches Nationaltheater Weimar in 2009.<\/p>\n
