Eric Schoeffler
Franco-Swedish bass-baritone Eric Schoeffler (www.ericschoeffler.com) is acclaimed for his dramatic presence and resonant timbre. Upcoming highlights include Escamillo (Carmen), Don Giovanni, and Méphistophélès (Faust).
Recent performances feature Count Almaviva (Le nozze di Figaro, Saluzzo 2023), Schaunard (La Bohème, Paris 2023), and Peter (Hänsel und Gretel, Berlin 2022). In concert, he has appeared as Pilatus in Bach’s Johannespassion (2023–24) and as soloist in Rossini’s Petite messe solennelle (Berlin 2023).
A graduate of the Academy of Music and Drama in Gothenburg, he trained further at the Stockholm Opera Studio and Vadstena Academy, after earlier studies at the Conservatoire Nadia & Lili Boulanger in Paris and a Master of Science in Engineering in Stockholm. Fluent in French, Swedish, German, Spanish and English, he unites Nordic clarity with French lyricism in his vocal artistry. He has appeared at the Stockholm Jazz Festival (2013) and the Nordic Song Festival (2024).
