Anna Brull

mezzo-soprano

Mezzo-soprano Anna Brull is a versatile artist whose work embraces opera, concert, and song repertoire, from Mozart and Rossini to French opera and music of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Equally at home on the opera stage and the concert platform, she is recognised for her stylistic versatility, musical curiosity, and thoughtful approach to repertoire.

Since joining the ensemble of Graz Opera in 2013, she has established herself in a wide range of mezzo-soprano roles. In 2017, she received the Austrian Music Theatre Award for Best Young Artist for her acclaimed Rosina in Rossini’s Il barbiere di Siviglia. Following her role debuts as Idamante in Mozart’s Idomeneo and Octavian in Richard Strauss’s Der Rosenkavalier during the 2025/26 season, she appears in 2026/27 as Marguerite in Berlioz’s La Damnation de Faust and Musetta in Leoncavallo’s La Bohème.

Her stage repertoire includes Didon (Les Troyens), Donna Elvira (Don Giovanni), Angelina (La Cenerentola), La Muse/Niklausse (Les Contes d’Hoffmann), Marchesa Melibea (Il viaggio a Reims), María in Piazzolla’s María de Buenos Aires, Prince Orlofsky (Die Fledermaus), and the title role in Offenbach’s La Grande-Duchesse de Gérolstein.

Guest appearances have taken her to Komische Oper Berlin, Opéra de Saint-Étienne, Deutsche Oper am Rhein, Theater Bielefeld, and Theater Hof.

Her repertoire also extends to contemporary opera. She made her debut at Teatro Real Madrid in the world premiere of Jesús Torres’s Tránsito and later returned to the theatre to perform the double role of Plaerdemavida/Viuda Reposada in Joan Magrané’s chamber opera Els Diàlegs de Tirant i Carmesina.

An active concert performer, Anna Brull made her debut at Vienna’s Musikverein singing Luciano Berio’s Folk Songs under Oksana Lyniv. Her concert repertoire also includes Ravel’s Shéhérazade, Berlioz’s Les Nuits d’été, Manuel de Falla’s Siete canciones populares españolas and El amor brujo. In spring 2026, she made her debut as alto soloist in Dvořák’s Requiem with the Spanish National Orchestra and Choir under Oksana Lyniv at Madrid’s Auditorio Nacional de Música.

Anna Brull studied at the Escola Superior de Música de Catalunya, the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, and the Conservatorio “Tito Schipa” in Lecce with Amelia Felle.
