Info for Schubert: Hoffnung

For this third volume of their ‘Schubert 200’ series, Samuel Hasselhorn and Ammiel Bushakevitz celebrate the composer’s refound exuberance. After the sunlit summer of 1825, 1826 was a year of renewal for Schubert, bringing an astounding rush of artistic energy. These Lieder, pitched between nostalgia and quiet confidence, sing of a hope transcending the vagaries of life.

Samuel Hasselhorn
born in Göttingen in 1990, is now one of the most influential performers in his field. After studying in Hanover and Paris and winning major prizes – most notably the Queen Elisabeth Competition in 2018 – he has established himself internationally on the opera stage as well as in the field of song and concert performance.

As an opera singer, Hasselhorn was initially a member of the ensemble at the Vienna State Opera and then at the Nuremberg Opera. Today, he regularly performs at major opera houses such as the Berlin State Opera Unter den Linden, the Frankfurt Opera, the Deutsche Oper Berlin, and La Scala in Milan. In the 2025/26 season, he will make his debut at the Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona in a new production of Mozart's “Le nozze di Figaro” as Conte Almaviva and at the Baden-Baden Easter Festival as Heerrufer (Lohengrin) under the baton of Joana Mallwitz. He will return to the Staatsoper Unter den Linden under the baton of Christian Thielemann as Barbier Schneidebart in “Die schweigsame Frau“, as well as for the world premiere of Matthias Pintscher's “Das kalte Herz“ and concerts featuring Brahms' Requiem, which he will also sing in a staged production at the Opéra Rouen.

Other performed roles include the title roles in Don Giovanni, Eugene Onegin, Pelléas et Mélisande, Mathis der Maler, and Il barbiere di Siviglia, as well as Wolfram von Eschenbach (Tannhäuser), Gabriel von Eisenstein (Die Fledermaus), Papageno (Die Zauberflöte), Fritz/Frank (Die tote Stadt), Guglielmo (Cosí fan tutte), Belcore (L'elisir d'amore), Harlequin (Ariadne auf Naxos), and Ford (Falstaff). Guest engagements have taken him to opera houses in Paris (Opéra Bastille), Brussels (La Monnaie), Florence (Maggio Musicale), Palermo, Toulouse, Darmstadt, Caen, Erfurt, Rouen, and the Theater an der Wien, where he worked with the leading conductors of our time: Daniel Barenboim, Christian Thielemann, Joana Mallwitz, Thomas Guggeis, Nathalie Stutzmann, Alain Altinoglu, Mark Minkowksi, Adam Fischer, Sebastian Weigle, Philippe Herreweghe, Laurence Equilbey, and Ivor Bolton.

Together with baritone Samuel Hasselhorn, he will release the second album of the “Schubert 200” project in February 2025 on the Harmonia Mundi label. The first album, Schubert’s Die schöne Müllerin, was awarded the Diapason d’or de l’année in 2024.
