"To me, the greatest pleasure of writing is not what it's about, but the music the words make." - Truman Capote

Konstantin Krimmel, of German-Romanian origin, received his first musical training with the St.
George‘s Choir Boys in Ulm. At the age of 21, he began his vocal studies with Prof. Teru Yoshihara, which the singer completed with distinction in 2020. Since then, he has been coached by Tobias Truniger in Munich.
During his studies Konstantin Krimmel developed a special love for the concert and lied repertoire, which he quickly expanded. He has since won numerous competitions, including the 2019 German Music Competition as well as 1st prize at the International Helmut Deutsch Lied Competition, 2nd prize at the International Singing Competition ‚Das Lied‘ in Heidelberg and the Gian Battista Viotti International Music Competition.
Consequently, the artist has already appeared nationally and internationally, including recitals at the Kölner Philharmonie, at the Deutsche Oper Berlin as well as at the Konzerthaus Berlin, at the Oper Frankfurt, at the Heidelberger Frühling, at the Schubertíada de Vilabertran as well as the Schubertiade in Schwarzenberg (A), in Madrid, London (Wigmore Hall) and at the Oxford Lieder Festival.
In summer 2021, he sung the Brahms Requiem under Raphael Pichon (Bordeaux), Bach’s Christmas Oratorio with the Nederlands Kamerkoor ( P. Dijkstra); planned are also concerts Ph. Herreweghe (2022).
Since autumn 2021, he is member of the Bavarian State Opera. Roles planned are in Strauss‘ Ariadne auf Naxos (Harlequin), in Britten‘s Peter Grimes (Ned Keene) and in Thomas (Matthias) by Georg Friedrich Haas.
He recorded Handel‘s Brockes Passion (together with the Ensemble Arcangelo under Jonathan Cohen) and his first Lied CD entitled Saga (songs and ballads by Loewe, Schumann, Schubert, Adolf Jensen).
