Bernhard Teufl

Bernhard grew up in Koppl, just outside Salzburg, where singing and playing music together were part of family life. He learned several instruments before discovering a particular passion for singing at the age of twenty.

He completed his vocal training at the Musikum Salzburg with distinction, then continued with Professor Monika Lenz and in masterclasses with Professor Kurt Widmer. He continues to develop his voice with Professor Bernd Valentin at the Mozarteum University Salzburg.

As a freelance tenor, he performs sacred music, concerts, staged opera and Lieder recitals. Schubert’s song cycles hold a special place in his artistic life.

His defining stage role was Josef at the Salzburger Adventsingen in the Great Festival Hall. Beginning in 2007, he played the role for 18 years and appeared in almost 250 performances.

Bernhard also has experience in Salzburg productions connected with The Sound of Music. On selected Sound of Maria experiences, he combines this repertoire with a personal connection to the region’s landscape and traditions. He joins Dana Hammett, Victoria Browers and Dmitry Iogman in weTours Salzburg’s professional vocal ensemble.
