BIOGRAPHY

The young mezzo-soprano Patricia Nolz is one of the most promising Austrian artists. Since 2019 she has been studying for a Master's degree in Lied and Oratorio with Florian Boesch and Claudia Visca. She is the winner of the Casinos Austria Rising Star Award 2019 and was awarded at competitions such as the ÖJAB Music Competition Vienna and the Osaka Music Competition in Japan. In 2019 she was an Anny Felbermayer scholarship holder.

In autumn 2020 Patricia Nolz was highly acclaimed for her debut as Cherubino in a new production of Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro at the Theater an der Wien. After two years in the Opera Studio of the Vienna State Opera, where she celebrated her first successes as Cherubino in Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro, and as Zerlina in a new production of Mozart's Don Giovanni under the direction of Philippe Jordan, she joined the ensemble of the Vienna State Opera from the 2022-2023 season onwards, where she was highly acclaimed as Zerlina/Don Giovanni, La Musica & La Speranza in Monteverdi's L'Orfeo, as Rosina/Il barbiere di Siviglia, as Page in a new production of Strauss's Salome and as Cherubino in a new production of Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro conducted by Philippe Jordan and staged by Barrie Kosky. Another highlight in the 2022/2023 season is her debut as Rosina in a new production of Rossini's Il Barbiere di Siviglia at the Opéra national de Lorraine in Nancy.

In the upcoming season she will again sing her signatur roles Zerlina and Cherubino at the Vienna States Opera. In addition she will be heard for the first time as Annio in Mozart's La Clemenza di Tito conducted by Pablo Heras-Casado, she will appear in the new production of Puccini's Il Trittico conducted by Philippe Jordan, as Orlovsky in the traditional Fledermaus at the turn of the year, and as Siébel in Gounod's Faust conducted by Bertrand de Billy.

Patricia Nolz has performed in numerous concerts and is an accomplished lied singer. Recent highlights have included Beethoven's IX Symphony with the Vienna Symphony Orchestra conducted by Karina Canellakis, Bach's B minor Mass with the Ensemble Barucco under Heinz Ferlesch, Mozart & Haydn arias as well as Mozart’s Requiem with the Concentus Musicus and Stefan Gottfried at the Harnoncourt Days in St. Georgen, Purcell's Fairy Queen and Bach’s St. Johns Passion with the Concentus Musicus and conducted by Stefan Gottfried, as well as a benefit gala in aid of war refugees from Ukraine at the Vienna Stadthalle, which was broadcast on ORF III, and a Brahms evening as part of the Schleswig-Holstein Festival.

Concert highlights in the near future include Mendelssohn's A Midsummer Night's Dream at the Grafenegg Festival, a duo recital with Martin Häßler at the Salzkammergut Festwochen in Gmunden, solo recitals at the Kultur.Sommer.Semmering, in Berndorf, Bolzano, at the Grazer Musikverein, as well as Brahms Liebesliederwalzer at the festivals in Como, Hindsgavl, Feuchtwangen and Moritzburg.

In the 2023-2024 season, she will be given a special platform at the Wiener Konzerthaus as a "Great Talent" with various orchestral concerts and song recitals. She will also perform Mendelssohn's Paulus with the Vorarlberg Symphony Orchestra, Beethoven's IX Symphony with the Gewandhaus Orchestra conducted by Andris Nelsons and Schubert's Mass in A flat major with the Concentus Musicus under Stefan Gottfried at the Vienna Musikverein.
