My life experience  When my parents were out, I surreptitiously put on a vinyl record, preferably a Beethoven Symphony, Schumann's Piano Concerto or even waltzes by Emil Waldteufel, and then I danced and bounced lost-in-the-world for hours to my own choreographies in our living room. Delicious! I caught the theater virus shortly before during a "Nussknacker"-ballet performance…. Eagerly and very proud I had started taking piano lessons before starting school. Over time I added the violin and later the viola - also in the school and city orchestra. Until one day and by mere coincidence, I was asked to offer my piano accompaniment to songs. The human voice, as instrument, experienced in closest proximity: that was it!  The prospect of being able to move freely while performing eclipsed my second intense desire to study medicine. The Palatinate, home to "Women and Song" anyhow, the power of the Normandy and the years abroad in Central Africa had determined my life until this point. Now I was entering a new world, which I try to grasp to this day: the phenomenon of the singing voice. From my academic years at the Music Conservatory in Mannheim, Germany, I still vividly recall a master class with Sena Jurinac. The human musical encounter with this impressive artistic personality led to my first realization, which I would repeat many more times, that the art of singing cannot be captured or even conveyed in words. That you'll have to find the path almost on your own and that now and again delightful learning experiences arise, when things are transferred as it were empathically. So to speak. The first opera part on stage became Donna Anna at the Chamber Opera of castle Schloss Rheinsberg. Supported by the Matthus family, who tirelessly campaign for the upcoming singing talents, and whom I owe a lot. Such as one of these encounters of invaluable asset with Kurt Masur. Shortly afterwards I received my first firm engagement at the small however fine City Theater of Hildesheim, Germany. It was there that my desire from the very start was fulfilled: singing "La Traviata". I sang many more songs, here and there - and gave birth to two children! Another path breaking encounter, was to be granted to sing on stage next to Renée Fleming: to witness - night after night - her immense and overwhelming masterhood of song and play, to try to get soaked with her talents, if possible…. Now, my voice wants to travel to new shores, wishes to become greater and larger. Until now, Charlotte Lehmann, Manuela Uhl, Jane Henschel, Susanne Schimmack and Hubert Delamboye have accompanied me on this new road.   or  Official Curriculum The German-French soprano studied Musicology and German language at the University of Heidelberg, Germany. Shortly afterwards, she started Vocal Studies at the Music Conservatory in Mannheim with Prof. Janice Harper-Smith. The following postgraduate course took her to Prof. Geszty in Stuttgart, Germany. She followed courses with a.o. Sena Jurinac, Renata Scotto and Irwin Gage. She is currently supervised by Hubert Delamboye. During her study already, she won prizes in various contests, such as the Erika-Köth Master Singer Competition and the Robert Stolz Competition. Furthermore, she was awarded the Richard Wagner scholarship. In 2002 Catherine Veillerobe made her debut as „Donna Anna” at the Schlossfestspiele in Rheinsberg, Germany. After guest performances in Kirchstetten (Austria) and the German cities Hagen (as „Uyulala” in the world premiere of Siegfried Matthus’ „Never ending story”), Frankfurt am Main, Frankfurt an der Oder, Brandenburg, Berlin and Dresden, she became a member of the Hildesheim City Theater Opera ensemble, where she especially emerged as „Violetta”. She also sang other parts such as „Gretel”, „Luise” (in „Der junge Lord” by Hans Werner Henze) or „Marguerite” very successfully. In Dresden she made her debut at the Staatsoperette as „Gräfin Gabriele Zedlau” in „Wiener Blut”. Catherine Veillerobe cooperated with conductors such as Christian Thielemann, Kurt Masur, Heribert Beissel, Tomas Netopil and Julien Salemkour. She played concerts at the Staatskapelle Berlin, the Munich Philharmonic Hall, the Staatskapelle Dresden and the Deutsche Staatsphilharmonie Rheinland-Pfalz. In 2009 she was invited to „Rosenkavalier” at the Winter festival Baden-Baden. This production led her to the „Theatre des Champs-Elysees” in Paris and was published on DVD. The main parts were played by Renée Fleming, Diana Damrau and Jonas Kaufmann. Christian Thielemann invited her again to play the „Confidante” in „Elektra” at the Winter festival 2010. This production is also available on DVD by Unitel. In Maastricht, Netherlands, she performed as „Maiden Marianne Leitmetzerin” in „Rosenkavalier” at the Opera Zuid and in the opera „Le tableau parlant” by A.E. Gretry in Alden Biesen, Belgium. She feels especially committed to the singing of recitals that range from Franz Schubert and Robert Schumann, the songs of the late romantic era to the French Melodies. Actually she works closely with fortepiano player Anneke Veenhof from Amsterdam, Netherlands, on a new Schubert project with origi-nal instruments. This year she debuts with „Isoldes Liebestod” in concert under the baton of Nobert Nozy at Theater Roermond. C A T HERINE VEILLEROBE SOPRAN Home Life Opera Song Download Imprint biography, life
