Baritone Andrè Schuen comes from the Ladin area of La Val of South Tyrol in Italy and grew up speaking three languages (Ladin, Italian and German). Although the cello was his chosen instrument for many years, he decided to attend the Mozarteum University in Salzburg, studying with Horiana Branisteanu, and Wolfgang Holzmair. With his Lied partner Daniel Heide, he can be heard worldwide in Lied centres such as London's Wigmore Hall, the Schubertiade, the Schubertíada Vilabertran, the Munich's Prinzregententheater, the Amsterdam's Concertgebouw, the Vienna Konzerthaus, Tanglewood and the Aspen Music Festival. His opera roles include Guglielmo (Così fan tutte), Figaro and Count Almaviva (The Marriage of Figaro), Don Giovanni, Eugene Onegin or Wolfram (Tannhäuser), Ford (Falstaff) or Rodrigo (Don Carlo). Since 2021, he has been an Exclusive Recording Artist for Deutsche Grammophon.
