Artists

Catalina Bertucci

The Chilean-Italian soprano Catalina Bertucci earned a music degree in Chile and later pursued advanced studies with Barbara Schlick at the Conservatory in ­Cologne. She then went on to complete her Konzertexamen with Gerhild Romberger at the Conservatory in Detmold. She has also participated in masterclasses with ­Angelika Kirchschlager, András Schiff, and Andreas Scholl among others.
Bertucci has appeared at the Volksoper in Vienna, the Landestheater in Linz, the Opéra de Lausanne, the Wiesbaden State Theatre, the Dresden Semperoper, ­Teatro Municipal de Santiago, the Darmstadt State Theatre, and other operatic venues. She has sung in performances of The Magic Flute, Gianni Schicchi, Don Giovanni, Der Rosenkavalier, The Rake’s Progress, Marriage of Figaro, and La Bohéme. In 2024, she made her debut at the Bayreuth Festival as Klingsor’s flower maiden, under the di­rection of Pablo Heras-Casado. Invitations from Bayreuth for 2025 and 2026 have followed.
She is also a sought-after concert soloist, performing under the direction of conductors such as Ton Koopman, Thomaskantors Gotthold Schwarz and Andreas Reize, Hans-Christoph Rademann, Hansjörg Albrecht, Rubén Dubrovsky, and Howard Arman. She has appeared with noted orchestras and in important concert venues and festivals.
Her passion for art song is reflected in many recitals. Together with Helmut Deutsch, she has performed at the Teatro del Lago in Frutillar, Chile, and at the Diademus Festival in Roggenburg.

Helmut Deutsch

Helmut Deutsch ranks among the finest, most successful and in-demand song recital accompanists of the world. He was born in Vienna, where he studied at the Conservatory, the Music Academy and the University. He was awarded the Compo­sition Prize of Vienna in 1965 and appointed professor at the age of twenty-four.
Although he has performed with leading instrumentalists as a chamber musician, he has concentrated primarily on accompanying in song recitals. At the beginning of his career he worked with the soprano Irmgard Seefried, but the most important singer of his early years was Hermann Prey, whom he accompanied as a permanent partner for twelve years.
Subsequently he has worked with many of the most important recital singers and played in the world’s major music centres.
His collaborations with Jonas Kaufmann, Diana Damrau and Michael Volle are currently among his most important.
Deutsch has recorded more than a hundred CDs. In recent years the development of young talent has been especially close to his heart. After his professorship in Vienna he continued his teaching primarily in Munich at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater, where he worked as a professor of song interpretation for 28 years. In addition he is a visiting professor at various other universities and is sought-after for an increasing number of masterclasses in Europe and the Far East. The young Swiss tenor Mauro Peter was one of his last students in Munich and has become one of his favourite recital partners.
