Neue Stimmen masterclass 2023

Marta took part in the prestigious Neue Stimmen masterclass 2023 on 22nd-29th of October 2023 in Gütersloh, Germany.

She worked with the world renowned soprano Annette Dasch in an "open to public" masterclass as well as working with various coaches and experts in the field.

At the final concert of the masterclass, Marta sang two pieces from Wet side Story by L. Bernstein, the aria "Somewhere" and the duet "Tonight" with tenor Brayan Avila Martinez and at a festive ceremony after the concert, they sang together again, this time the duet "Lippen Schweigen" from Die lustige Witwe' by F. Lehár.

This masterclass did not only include singing lessons as many masterclasses do, this week also included performance psychology sessions with Ralph Strehle, body & vocal coachings with John Norris and interesting social commitments where the participants sang with young children in the Gütersloh community.
