On December 25, Gabriela Scherer will expand her Mozart repertoire as she makes her role debut as Pamina in Die Zauberflöte. She will perform in three shows at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden in August Everding’s legendary production, conducted by Giuseppe Mentuccia and Eva Ollikainen. Additional performances are scheduled for December 29 and January 4, 2025.
This marks Gabriela Scherer’s fourth new role within a year, following her portrayals of Leonore in Fidelio in Lisbon, Chrysothemis in Elektra at the Semperoper Dresden, and another Mozart role, Donna Elvira in Don Giovanni, which she debuted earlier this year at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden.

This summer, Gabriela Scherer returns to the Bayreuth Festival for one of the most anticipated events in the international opera calendar of 2026: the season-opening premiere of Richard Wagner’s Rienzi on 26 July.
In May 2026, Gabriela Scherer returns to the Opernhaus Zürich for a major milestone: she will appear there for the first time in a leading role, singing Leonore in Fidelio by Ludwig van Beethoven. Born and raised in Zurich and a former member of the house’s International Opera Studio, Scherer now returns to the main stage as an established artist, taking on one of the most demanding roles in the repertoire. The production is staged by Andreas Homoki and conducted by Axel Kober. With these performances, Gabriela Scherer returns to Zurich in a role she has already successfully performed two years ago in Lisbon, now bringing it to her home opera house for the first time.
Senta in Der fliegende Holländer has long been central to Gabriela Scherer’s repertoire, and on January 18 she is heard in the role again in a one-off performance at the Deutsche Oper Berlin.
