Elisabeth Kulman

Elisabeth Kulman is an Austrian classical singer best known for her work as a mezzo-soprano/contralto, with a career that spans opera, concert, and lied. She became widely recognized for her versatility—moving comfortably between major orchestral works (including Mahler and Beethoven) and stage roles, and she’s appeared at prominent European venues and festivals.

In more recent years, Kulman has also become known for projects that go beyond standard classical programming, including her own ensemble work and themed recital concepts. She has spoken publicly about stepping back from the traditional opera career track, while continuing to perform in concerts and recordings on her own terms.
