Johanna von der Deken

Soprano Johanna von der Deken was born in Graz. Her acting studies at the school of the Wiener Volkstheater were followed by vocal studies at the Konservatorium der Stadt Wien. Johanna also took private singing lessons with KS Hilde Rössel-Majdan, KS Hilde Zadek and Prof. Herwig Reiter. Some of the highlights in her career have been the part of Caldara’s “Dafne”, the styriarte–productions of “Robert Stolz-Revue, “Le Feste d’Orfeo”, “Schubert im Schilcherland”, “l’Allegro” by G.F. Handel and Buxtehude’s “Membra Jesu Nostri” under Jordi Savall. These and many other projects show her unusually manifold repertoire from early baroque up to contemporary music.
