Markus Schäfer

**Markus Schäfer** is a distinguished German tenor celebrated for his elegant interpretations of classical and operatic repertoire. Known for his clear, expressive voice, he’s become a go-to artist for Mozart roles (like Don Ottavio in *Don Giovanni* and Ferrando in *Così fan tutte*), Romantic Lieder, and lesser-known works by composers such as Johann Simon Mayr and Vesque von Püttlingen. His recordings, including *Schubert: The Small Song Cycles* and tributes like *Hommage à Dinu Lipatti*, highlight his knack for blending technical precision with emotional depth. A frequent collaborator with period-instrument ensembles and opera houses, Schäfer’s live performances—often praised for their intimacy and spontaneity—showcase his versatility across Baroque to contemporary music.
