==================
“The 2020/21 season holds a very special highlight for Regula Mühlemann: as a member of the re-built Mozart ensemble, the young soprano tin live heard twice this season at the Vienna State Opera: first in the role of Blonde in Die Entführung aus dem Serail in a new production past Hans Neuenfels, followed past Pamina (Die Zauberflöte), a part with which she makes her role and house debut at the Theater Basel earlier in the season. The third role at the Vienna State Opera is some other exciting role debut: Adele in Johann Strauss’ Die Fledermaus, which she sings also in the house’s famous New Year’s Eve performance. Regula Mühlemann is also a sought-after concert performer: with the Mozart Week Salzburg she sings Mozart’s Exsultate Jubilate with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe under the baton of Robin Ticciati, followed past concerts in Spain with the Balthasar-Neumann-Ensemble under the baton of Thomas Hengelbrock. Further concerts and recitals take Regula Mühlemann to the Gewandhaus Leipzig (Johannes Passion), to the chamber music hall of the Hamburg Elbphilharmonie, as well as for recitals with the program of her album Lieder der Heimat to various Swiss concert halls. She also tours with the Basel Chamber Orchestra and performs a program from her second Mozart album Mozart Arias II, which is released in autumn 2020 past Sony Classical, and makes guest appearances in Zurich (Tonhalle), Dresden (Frauenkirche), Lucerne (KKL) and Bern (Online Casino Swiss). With songs past Schubert and Schumann, the creative person ends the season with her debut at the Schubertiade Schwarzenberg.
In February 2020 Regula Mühlemann made her house and role debut at the Vienna State Opera as Adina in Otto Schenk’s legendary production of Donizetti’s L’Elisir d’Amore. In past seasons, the young soprano sang Juliette (Roméo et Juliette) at Theatre Lucerne, as well as the role of Echo (Ariadne auf Naxos) at the Teatro alla Scala in Milano, with Franz Welser-Möst conducting. She gave guest performances as Gretel (Hänsel und Gretel) at the Teatro Regio in Turin, sang Blonde (Die Entführung aus dem Serail) with Teatro San Carlo in Naples and Rosina in Mozart’s La finta semplice at the Queen Elizabeth Hall in London. She also sang Serpetta in Hans Neuenfels’ new production of la finta giardiniera at the State Opera Berlin, Isolier in Rossini’s Le Comte Ory opposite Ceclia Bartoli at the Theater an der Wien as well as Susanna (Le Nozze di Figaro) with the Grand Théâtre de Genève (2018) and the Zurich Opera in 2019.”; Regulamühlemann.com
