Baritone
Brief profile
“Falk sings with an enormous tonal range that leaves no room for inattentive relaxation: it is as though the lyrics bite their way deeper into the ear with every syllable, every note (…) Falk’s interpretative skill is sensational,” writes Die Zeit, whilst The Washington Post enthuses: “Falk brings such vivid life to every word that one would understand his message even if he were singing in Vedic Sanskrit!”
His fluidity, colour and immediacy of expression have made him an internationally sought-after performer. Alongside the Baroque and Classical repertoire, he has a deep passion for contemporary music theatre.
During the 2025/26 season, Holger Falk will be performing with Amopera and the Klangforum Wien at the Transart Festival in Bolzano and at the NOSPR Concert Hall in Katowice, as well as at the Festspielhaus Erl as part of the Ausklang Festival with the Musicbanda Franui and Herbert Schuch.
Together with his long-standing piano partner Steffen Schleiermacher, he has recently focused on the French artistic movement known as the “Groupe des Six”. In June 2025, the final CD recording, Louis Durey: Mélodies et Chansons, was released by MDG, marking the conclusion of the 10-part CD series on the group’s song repertoire.
Holger Falk has been Professor of Art Song Interpretation and Performance Practice for Contemporary Music at the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz since the summer semester of 2019.
