In 2026, pianist Anna Gebhardt will make her debut at the Wigmore Hall, Lucerne Festival and Beethovenfest Bonn. She has been named a Britten Pears Young Artist for the 2025/26 season, with support by the Viola Tunnard Trust. Most recently, she was awarded 3rd prize at the Internationaler Wettbewerb für Liedkunst Stuttgart together with her long-time duo partner Jonas Müller (baritone) with whom she had previously received the Music Prize of the Kulturkreis Gasteig in Munich. For several years, she has devoted herself intensively to Lied accompaniment and chamber music and has been accepted as a scholarship holder for the 2023/24 season of the Heidelberger Frühling Lied Academy under the direction of Thomas Hampson. Her international concert activities have already taken her to Opéra national du Rhin Strasbourg, Alte Oper Frankfurt, SWR Festspiele Schwetzingen, Festival Castell de Perelada, Konzerthaus Berlin and Schubertíada Vilabertran.

She also maintains a close artistic collaboration with Julian Prégardien, Christoph Prégardien, Anna-Lena Elbert and Florian Störtz. Together with violinist Nathalie Schmalhofer, she was awarded 2nd prize in the Harald-Genzmer-Competition and 1st prize in the Fischer-Flach-Competition. Her musical style has been significantly influenced by Susan Manoff and Brigitte Fassbaender (Schubertiade Schwarzenberg).

After her junior studies at the University of Music and Theatre Munich, she studied piano with Prof. Silke Avenhaus and Prof. Bernd Glemser in Würzburg. Subsequently, she delved into the realm of lied interpretation under the guidance of Prof. Fritz Schwinghammer, Prof. Christian Gerhaher and Prof. Gerold Huber. In 2015, she was awarded a cultural prize by her hometown of Straubing. She has been a recipient of the Deutschland Scholarship on multiple occasions and is supported as a scholarship holder by Live Music Now München e.V. Music education is particularly close to her heart, which is why she regularly shares her passion for song and poetry during school visits as part of the Rhapsody in School organization. Since the winter semester 2020, she has held a teaching position for accompaniment at the Leopold-Mozart-College of the University of Augsburg.

Jonas Müller &
Anna Gebhardt

Baritone & Piano

Jonas Müller and Anna Gebhardt share a passion for lyric poetry and the classical song repertoire from Schubert to New Music. They met while studying together at Hochschule für Musik in Würzburg and have formed a permanent duo since October 2020. Currently, both are studying at University of Music and Performing Arts Munich, where they are coached by Prof. Christian Gerhaher, Prof. Gerold Huber and Tobias Truniger.

Their joint work has already led the two to Schubertiade Schwarzenberg, where they were invited to take part in a master class with Brigitte Fassbaender. In addition, they have been scholarship holders at Yehudi Menuhin Live Music Now München e.V. and give concerts at schools as part of the Rhapsody in School initiative. In June 2022, they will make their debut at Konzerthaus Berlin.

Anna Gebhardt &
Nathalie Schmalhofer

Violin & Piano

In search of musical freshness and passion, the award-winning duo – consisting of Nathalie Schmalhofer and Anna Gebhardt – has developed a wide-ranging repertoire. They have formed a permanent duo since studying together at Hochschule für Musik in Würzburg. They are coached by Prof. Denise Benda, Prof. Bernd Glemser and Prof. Herwig Zack. Within a few months they won prizes at several competitions, including 2nd prize at Harald Genzmer Competition in Munich and 1st prize at Wolfgang Fischer and Maria Fischer Flach Prize. Furthermore, they are scholarship holders at Yehudi Menuhin Live Music Now Franken e.V. and performed at Toscana Hall of the Residence in Würzburg.

Anna-Lena Elbert &
Anna Gebhardt

Soprano & Piano

In addition to the classical song repertoire, the duo is united by a passion for the unknown.

In search of the boundaries of classical music, the duo does not shy away from contemporary compositions, crossover or interdisciplinary art projects.

Moreover, the dissemination of compositions and texts by women and ostracized artists is especially close to their hearts. The two musicians aim to enable the audience and themselves to rediscover classical music.
