Info for Schumann: Dichterliebe & Selected Songs

After two Schubert albums, Mauro Peter has now turned intensively to the songs of Robert Schumann – a composer no less dear to him than Franz Schubert. In 2012 he won the Schumann Competition in Zwickau. “It is young, it is lyrical,” tenor Mauro Peter explains his deep connection with Schumann’s Dichterliebe. “I can relate to these feelings because they are familiar to me. The music is full of emotion and so incredibly heartfelt at the same time.”

Born in Luzern (Switzerland), the young tenor Mauro Peter studied in Munich/Germany. He was winner of the first prize and the audience award at the 2012 International Robert Schumann Competition in Zwickau. He had a sensational debut in 2012 with Schubert's Die schöne Müllerin, accompanied by Helmut Deutsch, at the Schubertiade in Schwarzenberg. From that moment on he has been a regular guest at international concert halls and opera houses. Helmut Deutsch is one of the most sought-after pianists for chamber music and vocal accompaniment. He studied piano, composition, and musicology at the Vienna Music Academy, where he was awarded the Vienna Composition Prize. Here they join together to record 'A Poets Love' & selected music of Robert Schumann (1810-1856).

In 2012 he participated at the Young Singers Project of the Salzburg Festival under the baton of Ivor Bolton and attended master classes with Thomas Hampson and Michael Schade.

These recitals were followed by his debuts with the same program in Tokyo, Schloss Elmau, and at Schumannfest Bonn. The 2013/14 season includes recital debuts at Vienna’s Musikverein, London’s Wigmore Hall, and Antwerp’s De Singel as well as at the Zurich Opera.
