The German mezzo-soprano, Franziska Gündert, studied at the Musikhochschule Freiburg under Professor Sato-Schöllhorn and graduated with a master's degree in concert and opera.

In addition to the opera Franziska Gündert goes to a busy concert activity. Concert tours take her to Belgium, southern France, Asia, Switzerland and Italy. She was heard in Rome with Felix Mendelssohn's Elias last year, as well as with Antonio Vivaldi's Gloria and J.S. Bach's Magnificat (BWV 243) in Padua and Venice.
