Stefan Bien, baritone
The graduate industrial engineer and managing director of an international company took singing lessons. He took singing lessons at the Carl Maria von Weber Academy of Music and received encouragement and support from singers such as Thomas Quasthoff, Tobias Berndt and Jean-Noël Briend. He gained stage experience in the opera choir of the Plauen-Zwickau theatre and made his solo debut in Rossini's "Petite Messe solennelle". His repertoire ranges from Bach to Wagner, with art song being particularly close to his heart. With a vocal range of over three octaves and an impressive colour palette, he touches his audience.

Ekaterina Gorynia, violoncello
Her passion, curiosity and openness to music have led her to a varied repertoire ranging from Renaissance and Baroque to classical cello, jazz, folk and contemporary music. The focus of her work lies in chamber music and theatre. Ekaterina Gorynina has been teaching a cello class at the Heinrich Schütz Conservatory in Dresden since 2018.

Julia Aldinger, piano
Passionate Lied pianist with German-Russian roots and an excellent education at the Dresden, Weimar and St. Petersburg conservatories. Scholarship holder at the Liedforum Berlin and concert partner of national and international prizewinners.
