German-Hungarian mezzo-soprano Corinna Scheurle is equally at home on the opera, recital and concert stages. Following her studies at the UDK Berlin with Prof. Carola Höhn and Theateracademy August Everding Munich with Prof. KS Christiane Iven, Corinna was invited to join the International Opera Studio of the Berlin State Opera. After completing two years in the Berlin Studio, Corinna joined the soloist ensemble of the Bavarian State Opera. A subsequent offer from the Staatstheater Nuremberg in 2021 gave Corinna the opportunity to grow her core repertoire, where she debuted roles such as Carmen in Carmen, Octavian in Der Rosenkavalier, Hänsel in Hänsel und Gretel, Angelina in La Cenerentola, Donna Elvira in Don Giovanni, Meg Page in Falstaff, Antiope in Talestri as well as Cherubino in a new production of Le nozze di Figaro conducted by Joana Mallwitz. As a guest, Corinna has returned to the Berlin State Opera to give her debut as Cherubino (before she sang the role in Nuremberg) under the baton of Daniel Barenboim and also to perform Dryade in Ariadne auf Naxos. She will come back next season to sing her first Stéphano in Gounod’s Roméo et Juliette in a new production of Marie Clément.

Further debuts in the upcoming 24/25 season include Olga in Eugen Onegin and Seeräuber-Jenny in Dreigroschenoper, Des Knaben Wunderhorn and Wesendonck Lieder under the baton of Thomas Guggeis, Lied von der Erde with Ensemble Kontraste Nürnberg, H-Moll Messe with Hof Symphony and several recitals with pianists like Klara Hornig, Akemi Murakami and Hanna Bachmann.

Further engagements have taken the young mezzo-soprano to venues like the Semperoper Dresden in the role of Hänsel, the Glyndebourne Festival as Second Lady, the Festival of Baden-Baden as Second Lady, the Tyrolean Festival Erl as Kitchen Boy in Rusalka and Waltraute in  Die Walküre, the Bregenzer Festival as Marcellina in Le nozze di Figaro, the Landestheater Salzburg, the Aachen Opera, the Biblioteca Alexandrina in Egypt - all three as Carmen, as Ruggiero in Alcina Kammeroper Rheinsberg, Festival Aix-en-Provence, the MüPa Budapest and to Ljubljana as a soloist in Bachs Christmas Oratorio and the Kammerakademie Potsdam as a soloist in Beethovens 9th Symphony.

Corinna has performed under the baton of maestri Daniel Barenboim, Kirill Petrenko, Vladimir Jurowski, Yannick Nézét-Séguin, Antonello Manacorda, Thomas Guggeis, Laurence Equilbey, Joana Mallwitz, Sebastin Weigle and Roland Böer, and has collaborated with orchestras such as the Staatskapelle Berlin, the Chamber Orchestra of Europe, the Kammerakademie Potsdam, the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, the L‘Insula Orchestra, the Münchner Rundfunkorchester, the Bavarian State Orchestra and the Symphony Orchestra in Vorarlberg, Austria. 

In Spring 2023 Corinna completed her very first self-managed CD recording project together with the Berlin based pianist Klara Hornig and through a collaboration with the Bavarian Broadcasting in Munich. The album Schwarze Erde (Black Earth) is an intimate musical journey through the Hungarian folk music of Béla Bartók, the highly romantic compositions of Zoltán Kodály and Robert Schumann, and works of the Second Viennese School of Alban Berg. The pieces are connected through the themes of homeland, nature, loss, love and death and received high praise from acclaimed magazines like Opernwelt, Fono Forum and Opernglas.

Corinna won the first prize of Gasteig Musikpreis in Munich in 2017, she is a prizewinner of Bundeswettbewerb Berlin 2018, was a Semifinalist of the NEUE STIMMEN competition in 2015 and is a scholarship holder of the Liz Mohn foundation, the Wagner foundation Vorarlberg and the Hans-und Eugenia Jütting foundation.

She joined masterclasses of Brigitte Fassbaender, Kurt Widmer, Thomas Hamson, Klesie Kelly-Moog, Anna Tomowa-Sintow, Neil Shicoff and Francisco Ariza. She works on her vocal development with Abbie Furmansky, John Norris and Tobias Truniger.
