Konstantin Paganetti
Bass
Konstantin Paganetti has established himself as an exciting vocal talent of the younger generation thanks to his exceptional interpretive and vocal expressiveness and his richly nuanced voice.
An intensive concert schedule featuring a wide range of lieder and concert engagements regularly takes him to international festivals and major churches and concert halls, such as the Cologne Philharmonic Hall and the Dortmund Konzerthaus.
He has received national and international awards for his musical achievements. In 2023, he won third prize at the International Schubert Competition in Dortmund; he is a scholarship recipient of the German Orchestra Foundation and the German National Academic Foundation.
Numerous concerts and studio recordings featuring him have been broadcast by SWR2, WDR3, DLF, and SRF Kultur. In transdisciplinary concert formats, he combines illustrations, literature, and dance with classical music. In doing so, he collaborates with Franziska Staubach, Toni Ming Geiger, Anastasia Grishutina, Hedayet Djeddikar, Michael Gees, as well as the Neue Hofkapelle Osnabrück, L’arpa festante, and the B’Rock Orchestra.
Konstantin Paganetti was born in the Rhineland in 1996 and studied voice with Christoph Prégardien and completed his concert exam under Thilo Dahlmann. Masterclasses with Klaus Mertens, Emma Kirkby, Christian Immler, and Brigitte Fassbaender complemented his training.
Since the summer semester of 2025, he has been teaching as an academic assistant for voice at the Freiburg University of Music.
