The German tenor, Manuek Ried, gained his first musical experience with the Augsburger Domsingknaben and at the Bayrischen Singakademie under Hartmut Elbert. He studied at the Leopold-Mozart-Zentrum Augsburg under Edda Sevenich and Professor Dominik Wortig, in Rudi Spring's Lied class and Sibylla Rubens' oratorio class.
Manuek Ried is a sought-after interpreter in opera and concert, Monteverdi's Marienvesper to Felix Mendelssohn's Elias, especially in the works of J.S. Bach. He has worked with ensembles such as the Bach-Collegium Stuttgart under Helmuth Rilling, Lautten Compagney Berlin (Director: Wolfgang Katschner), Meininger Hofkapelle, Orchestre de Chambre Luxembourg, Berlin Baroque, La Banda, La Chapelle Ancienne, Aris & Aulis and the Stiftsbarock Stuttgart.
Opera and concert engagements regularly take Manuek Ried throughout Germany, Austria, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Italy and to concert halls such as the Berliner Philharmonie or the Münchner Herkulessaal. He has sung at venues such as the Staatstheater Meiningen, Pfalztheater Kaiserslautern, Staatstheater Augsburg, Teatro Bolzano, Tiroler Landestheater, Theater Heidelberg, Theater Hagen and at festivals such as the Mozartfest Augsburg, Mozartwoche Bad Reichenhall, Internationalen Bachtagen Hessen-Thüringen, Vielklang Festival Tübingen and the Musikfest Stuttgart. The opera parts he has sung range from the Baroque, such as George Frideric Handel's Alcina (Oronte), W.A. Mozart's Die Zauberflöte (Tamino), Rossini's La Cenerentola (Don Ramiro) to modern, such as Bruno Maderna's Satyricon (Trimalchio) and operettas such as Künneke's Vetter aus Dingsda (1. Fremder) or Lehár's Die lustige Witwe (Camille de Rossillon).
Lieder singing is another focus of his artistic work. He can be heard regularly in recitals with L.v. Beethoven's An die ferne Geliebte, Robert Schumann's Dichterliebe or Schubert's Die schöne Müllerin.
His first CD releases are also available. In 2016 he recorded Nicollo Jommeli’s cantata Fede speranza e amor divino for the Italian label Bongiovanni and in 2018 Ulrich Zeitler’s Veni sancte spiritus for DMG. |
