Biography

Born in Bad Pyrmont, soprano Julia Borchert studied at the Folkwang University of Arts in Essen and in Freiburg im Breisgau.

Since her brilliant role debut as Brünnhilde in Magdeburg, directed by Jakob Peters Messer, she has secured a permanent place in the ranks of dramatic sopranos, which she further consolidated with her engagement as Isolde at the Theater Hildesheim where she delighted audiences and critics alike.

Her beginnings took her trough the Nationaltheater Mannheim to the Niedersächsische Staatsoper Hannover, from where she continued her career at important opera houses in Germany and abroad.

The change to dramatic roles led her via Leipzig, Kassel and Linz to the Bayreuther Festspiele. She made her debut as Voce dal cielo/ Don Carlo under Daniele Gatti at La Scala di Milano and in Tokyo. She sang Ortlinde at the Teatro Massimo di Palermo under Piettari Inkinen and later at the Palau de les Arts in Valencia under Zubin Mehta. Several concert tours have taken her throughout Europe, Russia and Australia.

As Woglinde she can be heard in a live concert recording with the Rundfunk-Symphonieorchester Berlin conducted by Marek Janowski, she works regularly with the WDR-Sinfonieorchester Köln, with whom she has performed Schubert's Stabat Mater and Wagner's Wesendoncklieder under the musical direction of Michael sang Sanderling.

Julia Borchert has worked with well-known conductors such as Heinz Holliger, Philippe Jordan, Adam Fischer, Pierre Boulez, Axel Kober, Christian Thielemann, Tomáš Netopil and Daniel Harding as well as with directors such as Stefan Herheim, Christine Mielitz, Graham Vick, Dietrich Hilsdorf, Calixto Bieto and Anthony Pilavachi and Peter Konwitschny.

More recently she has celebrated success with Gurre-Lieder/Tove in Essen, song recitals featuring works of Wagner, Mahler and Strauss, as well as Rosalinde in J. Strauss' Die Fledermaus. Future projects include Giuseppe Verdi's Requiem and Redemption of César Franck.
