Biography
Veronika Seghers is a young soprano whose passion for music knows no bounds. Fluent in German, Russian, Italian, English, and French, she effortlessly bridges linguistic divides, infusing her performances with a rich tapestry of languages.
She received invaluable voice lessons from the italian bass Giacomo Prestia, Mariella Devia, Krassimira Stoyanova, Eva Mei, Ramon Vargas and Daniela Fally, enhancing her vocal technique and artistry. Her commitment to excellence earned her recognition, including a prize at the "Immling Festival" competition, "Karel Kunc Lied Competition" and in 2019 and a scholarship from the esteemed "Hamel Foundation" the same year.
Veronika's quest for musical mastery led her to pursue a Master of Arts (MA) in singing at the esteemed University for Music and Performing Arts in Vienna, graduating at the age of 23 under the mentorship of opera luminaries Daniela Fally and Ramon Vargas.
One of her first roles was "Serpetta" in "La finta giardiniera," together with the Academy of the Vienna Philharmonics at the age of 20.
She started her career in France as "Ida" at several theaters like Rennes, Avignon, Angers and Toulon and as "Barbarina" with the Munich chamber opera. Veronika's repertoire showcases her versatility and artistry, from captivating audiences as "Queen of the Night" for children at the Bavarian State Opera to delivering soul-stirring renditions as "Pamina" at the Bregenzer Festspiele and Bolzano Theater. In 2021 and 2023 she was heard as "Carolina" in "Il matrimonio segreto" at Teatro Regio di Parma and Opera Tenerife. In 2024, Veronika continues to captivate audiences with her performances, from her portrayal of "Jenny" in "La madame blanche" with the chamber opera of Munich to her upcoming role as "Papagena" in "The Magic Flute" at Opera Nice. 2025 brings her to the "Deutsche Theater" in Munich in the role of "Madame Silberklang" in "Der Schauspieldirektor" and to the Cuvilliers theatre in Munich as "Sandmännchen/Taumännchen".
