The German bass-baritone, Wolfram Teßmer, studied church music at the Kirchenmusikschule Greifswald (Class of 1991). There, he received first singing lesson and took solo roles. From 1993 to 2000 he studied at the Hochschule für Musik "Hanns Eisler" in Berlin with Kammersänger Wolfgang Hellmich. He was a member of Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau's and Professor Wolfram Rieger's Lied classes, attended master-classes with Peter Schreier, Max van Egmond, Helmuth Rilling and others, and was a scholarship holder at the Komische Oper Berlin.
Wolfram Teßmer has been a permanent member of the Rundfunkchor Berlin (Directors: Simon Halsey / Gijs Leenaars) since 2004. As a soloist, he has worked with well-known conductors and orchestras such as the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin under Ingo Metzmacher, the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin under Marek Janowski and the Berliner Philharmoniker under Pierre Boulez and Simon Rattle. He has a wide repertoire (e.g. the major oratorios of J.S. Bach, George Frideric Handel and Haydn), and has already made a name as an oratorio specialist in numerous concerts, including at the Schauspielhaus and the Berliner Philharmonie. He is even asked as an interpreter of new music, such as various premieres in Rheinsberg and Frankfurt. |
