Jasmin Etezadzadeh
Mezzo-Soprano
German mezzo-soprano Jasmin Etezadzadeh has been an ensemble member at Theater Basel since the 2019/20 season.
This season begins with Herodias in Salome, followed by La Donna in Intolleranza and an improvisation in the form of an opera by Herbert Fritsch and violinist Patricia Kopatschinskaya. In November 2022, Theater Basel will perform a children’s play written by her, which she will direct herself, accompanied by a trio.
In the coming seasons, she will sing Waltraute in the Ring of the Nibelungs and in the Valkyries and Götterdämmerung, among other roles. Fricka she covers and in Monteverdi`s L`incoronatione di Poppea under the direction of Christoph Marthaler the Ottavia.
At Theater Basel last season, she sang Podtotschina in Shostakovich`s opera The Nose and the solo alto in Johann Sebastian Bach`s staged St. Matthew Passion, among other roles. She made guest appearances at the Cologne Opera as the Witch in “Hansel and Gretel” and at the Komische Oper as Czipra in “The Gypsy Baron” under the direction of Tobias Kratzer and the musical direction of Stefan Soltesz.
In June 21 she sang the role of the Mother in Dallapicola’s “Il Prigioniero” with the Radio Filharmonisch Orkest conducted by Frank Ollu at the Concertgebouw Amsterdam.
Highlights 2021/22
A really special concert was singing the part of Madre, in Il Priggionero / Dallapiccola and the part of Berthe in Blond Eckbert / Weir at the Concertgebouw Amsterdam under the direction of Franck Ollu. Furthermore I am happy about the Hänsel & Gretel / Humperdinck production at the Opera Cologne in which I sing the witch. It is also a great pleasure to sing 3 parts in the nose of Shostakovich Theater Basel under the direction of H. Fritsch.
Vita
Engagements have taken her to the Komische Oper Berlin, the Concertgebouw Amsterdam, the Nationaltheater Mannheim, the Bühnen Wuppertal, the Volkstheater Rostock, the Staatstheaters in Schwerin, Oldenburg and Mainz, the Theater Bremen, the Bühnen Halle, the Theater Magdeburg, the Opéra de Reims and the Kurt Weill Fest in Dessau.
After training as an actor, she completed her vocal studies in 2009 with a diploma in opera. During this time she was a student in the Young Ensemble of the Staatstheater Mainz for six years and sang in several productions for children at the Frankfurt Opera.
One of her most important premieres in the field of new music was the opera “22,13” by Marc André. This took her to the Munich Biennale as well as to the Festival d ́Automne Paris at the Opéra National.
Jasmin Etezadzadeh’s extensive opera and concert activities are complemented by collaborations with renowned conductors and directors such as Frank Ollu, David Parry, Ari Rasileinen, Felice Venanzoni, Constantinos Carydis as well as Phillipp Stölzl, Tobias Kratzer, Herbert Fritsch, Lydia Steier, Peer Boysen, George Delnon, Gottfried Pilz, Anouk Nicklisch and Katharina Thoma.
