In April 2022, Friedrich Hamel will make his debut at Mecklenburgisches Staatstheater Schwerin, where he sing 2. Bass and Kaiser von Mesopotanien in a new production of Zimmermann’s Der Schuhu und die fliegende Prinzessin.

In opera productions at the Hanover’s University of Music, Drama and Media, the young bass has so far performed in Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte, Offenbach’s La vie Parisienne, Martinů’s Juliette and Strauss’ Ariadne auf Naxos (Truffaldin). Friedrich Hamel has sung Death in Ullmann’s Der Kaiser von Atlantis and Death in Holst’s Sāvitri in productions at the Hamburg University of Music. In January 2022, he will make his debut in the title role of Mozart’s Le nozze di Figaro in Hanover.

As a concert soloist, Friedrich Hamel has sung Bach’s cantatas and is often casted in his St John Passion as well as St Matthew Passion. In addition, the German bass sings almost all representative repertoire in this field – from early to modern music.

A dedicated recitalist, Friedrich Hamel has sung selected lieder, as well as the cycles of Beethoven’s An die ferne Geliebte, Martin’s Six Monologues from Jedermann, Schubert’s Winterreise and Schumann’s Dichterliebe.
