BIOGRAPHY
Swiss tenor Mauro Peter was born in Lucerne and studied at Munich’s University of Music and the Performing Arts. In 2012 he won the first prize and audience prize at the International Robert Schumann Competition in Zwickau and made his highly acclaimed recital debut at the Schubertiade in Schwarzenberg with Schubert’s Die schöne Müllerin. His accompanist on that occasion was Helmut Deutsch. Since then, he has appeared regularly in Schwarzenberg and Hohenems as well as in leading concert halls and opera houses all over the world.
Mauro Peter opens the 2022/2023 season with a new production of Mozart's Magic Flute (Tamino) at the Opéra National de Paris, followed by Strauss's Salome (Naraboth) at Zurich Opera House, where he has been a permanent ensemble member since 2013 and most recently celebrated great successes with Mozart's Cosí fan tutte (Ferrando), Zender's Winterreise and as Nemorino in Donizetti's Elisir d'amore. He made his Boston and Carnegie Hall debuts in spring 2022 with a concert performance of Berg's Wozzeck (Andres) conducted by Andris Nelsons. In addition to numerous recitals, he can be heard in the 2022-2023 season with Haydn's Creation under Jan-Willem de Vriend and the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, with Beethoven's IX Symphony under Andris Nelsons and the Gewandhaus Orchestra, with Mozart's C minor Mass under Manfred Honeck in Rome, with Bach's St. John Passion under Stefan Gottfried and the Concentus Musicus at the Vienna Musikverein, with Mozart's Coronation Mass under Kirill Petrenko with the Berlin Philharmonic. Furthermore, he can be heard as Tamino in Mozart's Magic Flute at the Semperoper Dresden and he sings Eisenstein for the first time in a concert performance of Strauss' Fledermaus at the Musikverein für Steiermark.
