If one lists the great voices of our time in the classical-romantic repertoire, the Finnish Camilly Nylund (*1968) must not be missing. After permanent engagements in Hanover and Dresden, the Vaasa-born soprano is celebrated worldwide above all for her (title) roles in works by Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss: Elisabeth - with this Tannhäuser role she made her Bayreuth Festival debut in 2011 -, Elsa, Sieglinde, Arabella, Ariadne or Salome are among her repertoire, which has since taken her to Vienna, New York, Milan, Munich, Berlin, Salzburg or Zurich.
In recognition of her artistic achievements, Nylund has received national and international awards, including the appointment as Saxon Chamber Singer in 2008, the Pro Finlandia Medal (2013), the Finnish State Prize for Music in 2019 and the appointment as Austrian Chamber Singer in the same year.

The name Klaus Florian Vogt (*1970) is certainly known to all Wagnerians, as the tenor is one of the Wagner specialists of our time. In the dramatic roles of "Lohengrin," "Parsifal" or "Tannhäuser," he has caused quite a stir to this day. These and other Wagner roles have brought him to the great stages of our time, from the Vienna State Opera to the New York Met. Since 2007, Vogt has appeared almost continuously at the Bayreuth Festival, and in the new production of the "Ring" (originally planned for 2020) he will take on the role of Siegmund.
The repertoire of the native North German is, however, much more complex and, in addition to Wagner, includes, for example, the role of Florestan in Beethoven’s only opera "Fidelio" or that of Paul in Korngold’s "Die tote Stadt." Vogt, who was awarded the ECHO-Klassik prize as Artist of the Year (2012), has also enjoyed international success in lied and chamber music. Most recently, the singer can be heard in the CD recording of the Beethoven symphonies by the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen under Parvo Järvi as soloist alongside Christiane Oelze, Maria Lang and Matthias Goerne in the 9th symphony - incidentally, he also took on this role for the 2021 New Year’s Concert of the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France.
