The students of the Internationales Opernstudio of the Berlin Staatsoper perform in the Foyer in the framework of the Academy Concerts series. The Teatro alla Scala Academy invites the students of the world’s foremost voice schools to create an occasion of exchange and comparison with its own students. The exchange will be reciprocated on 14 April in Berlin, when the La Scala students hold a concert in the Apollo Saal of the Staatsoper Unter den Linden.

Accompanied by Manuel Lange, Rachel Frenkel (mezzosoprano), Rosen Krastev (bass), Abdellah Lasri (tenor) and Evelin Novak (soprano) will perform works by Mozart, Donizetti, Verdi, Gounod, Borodin, Brahms, Delibes, Massenet, Puccini, Strauss and Barber.

The soloists from Berlin will also have the opportunity to attend a master class held by Mirella Freni and Vincenzo Scalera during their stay in Milan.
