The Berlin-born soprano Nina Bezu is one of the most promising young dramatic voices of her generation and has recently celebrated important debuts, including as Contessa (Le nozze di Figaro) at the Hanover State Opera, as Gerhilde (Die Walküre) alongside Jonas Kaufmann and under the direction of Dan Ettinger at the Teatro di San Carlo in Naples and most recently as Salome at the Finnish National Opera in Helsinki, whereupon she was immediately invited back to make her role debut as Elisabetta di Valois in Verdi's Don Carlos in the same season. In the current season, she will also make her house debut as Salome at the Teatro Massimo di Palermo.
Other recent guest appearances have taken her to the Staatstheater Braunschweig as Mariana in Wagner's Das Liebesverbot, as First Lady (Die Zauberflöte) and as the soprano soloist in Beethoven's 9th Symphony, as well as to the Staatstheater Cottbus as Contessa in the new production of Le nozze di Figaro. She has appeared on the concert platform in Dvorák's Stabat Mater, Verdi's Messa da Requiem, Brahms' Ein deutsches Requiem and Mendelssohn's Paulus, all at the Herkulessaal in Munich, at the Theater Kempten with the Smetana Philharmonic Orchestra Prague and most recently with the Istanbul State Symphony Orchestra at the Türk Telekom Opera Hall. With the Orchestre National des Pays de la Loire under the direction of Sascha Goetzel, she sang concerts with Verdi's Messa da Requiem in Angers and Nantes.
