Simone Kermes

Internationally Simone Kermes is one of the most sought after sopranos for dramatic roles. Her unusually large vocal range predestined her for the virtuoso works of the baroque masters, but also for soprano roles and arias of Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven. Artistic engagements have taken her to the largest, most famous concert halls in the world. She has given solo concerts in such venues as Carnegie Hall, Tchaikovsky Hall in Moscow, and the Palau de la music in Barcelona. In addition to many radio and television productions she has recorded many CDs. She has received numerous awards for her solo albms, including the annual prize of the German Record Critics, the Diapason d’Or, BBC music choice, Gramophone Disc of the month and the ECHO Classic award.
