Yves Brühwiler (Bass-Baritone)

Born: Zürich, Canton of Zürich, Switzerland

The Swiss bass-baritone, Yves Brühwiler, had received singing lessons with Anneliese Fackler and Roswitha Müller, before he began his studies at the Zürcher Hochschule der Künste ZHdK in 2012 with Lina Maria Äkerlund. In the summer of 2015, he completed his Bachelor of Music degree in Solo Singing with distinction. As a final project, he sang well-known and unknown songs and ballads by Carl Loewe, accompanied on a fortepiano. He then completed his Master of Music degree with Werner Güra at the ZHdK. He is a scholarship holder of the Friedl-Wald-Stiftung in 2015 and of Migros Kulturprozent in 2016. He also gains important inspiration in master-classes, to date with Dunja Vejzovic, Brigitte Fassbaender, Margreet Honig, Meinard Kraak and Rudolf Piernay, among others.

As a member of the additional choir of the Opernhauses Zürich, he was on stage with the most important singers at an early age and gained valuable insight into the world of opera. As part of the 2013 Zürcher Festspiele, the Swiss singer took on an opera role for the first time in the world premiere of the Tannhäuser parody Heinrich Treibhäuser. Since 2015 he has been a member of the core choir of the Zürcher Sing-Akademie (Director: Timothy Brown/Florian Helgath). He is also a member of the Accademia Barocca Lucernensis (Director: Javier Ulises Illán). As a sought-after concert soloist, he performs throughout Switzerland and in neighboring countries. He is particularly interested in the cultivation of Lieder singing, in which he continues to train with Daniel Fueter, Hans Adolfsen and Christoph Berner.
