Born: 1990 - Leipzig, Saxony, Germany
The German mezzo-soprano, Marie Henriette Reinhold, was influenced by her musically-minded family from earliest childhood. After taking her school leaving certificate from the Abbey School in Pforta, she first studied musicology and cultural management at the Franz Liszt School of Music in Weimar and Friedrich Schiller University in Jena, receiving her bachelor’s degree in summer 2011. She studied singing with Kammersänger Professor Roland Schubert from 2008. A founding member of the Saxon State Youth Choir, she started taking voice lessons from Roland Schubert in 2008. These lessons and her choral work kindled a love of singing and a wish to turn her hobby into a profession. In consequence, since October 2011 she has studied classical voice with Professor Elvira Dreßen at the Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy University of Music in Leipzig. Another source of inspiration was the master-classes she attended in Lied interpretation with Jonathan Alder, Alexander Schmalcz, and Peter Schreier. She was a first junior prize-winner at the German National Competition in Berlin (2012) and a prize-winner at the Schloss Rheinsberg Chamber Opera (2014).
Marie Henriette Reinhold's solo appearances have already taken her to the Leipzig Thomaskirche, Leipzig Gewandhaus, Dresden Kreuzkirche and Cologne Philharmonie. She has also sung with the Batzdorfer Hofkapelle, Concerto Köln and the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, among other ensembles. She gathered her first experiences with opera in productions at Leipzig University of Music, where she sang the Third Lady in W.A. Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte and the Countess in Lortzing’s Wildschütz. She currently lives in Leipzig, Germany.
