Olga Bezsmertna

Since her spectacular role debuts as Rusalka next to Piotr Beczala and as Rachel in La Juive next to Neil Shicoff’s legendary Eleazar at the Vienna State Opera in 2014/15, the “magnificent voice” (Die Presse) Olga Bezsmertna has established herself as one of today’s outstanding singers.

In 2025/26, she will return to the Teatro alla Scala in David McVicar’s Ring des Nibelungen, this time as Gutrune in the new production of Götterdämmerung, as well as in Ring cycles, in which she will also appear on stage as Freia and Ortlinde. She will tour Japan with the Vienna State Opera; on the program is Mozart’s Le nozze di Figaro. She will also be involved in a recording of Thomas de Hartmann’s opera Esther for the Pentatone label, conducted by Kirill Karabits, in which she will sing the role of Elise. In concert, she will perform Chausson’s Poème de l’amour et de la mer and Mahler’s Symphony No. 4 with the George Enescu Philharmonic under Patrick Lange, as well as in Britten’s War Requiem, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the composer’s death.
