ln this documentary portrait, Christine Schafer reveaIs how she has come to position herseIf in the top ranks of today's sopranos while stiII maintaining her artistic freedom. With razor-sharp wit and inteIligence, she describes how she keeps herseIf grounded in a worId that craves ceIebrities. Among the friends and colIeagues who provide insights into her artistry as welI as her refreshing normaIity are conductors Christian Thielemann and SyIvain CambreIing, stage director Christoph MarthaIer, music journalist Jürgen Kesting, singer José van Dam and others.
Christine Schafer is the anti-diva of the vocal worId, a no-nonsense, down-to-earth singer who transforms her opera roIes and lieder recitals into grippingIy realistic scenes of universal human drama. When it comes to choosing her repertoire and her roIes, she unwaveringIy foIIows her own path and refuses to subject herself to marketing campaigns designed to stamp her as the new heroine of whatever is currentIy in demand. With a repertoire ranging from earIy music to contemporary works, Schafer does not need a speciaIty, and can even indulge in Iight music with Max Raabe's PaIastorchester and hits of the 1920s. Excerpts from concert performances and rehearsaIs of works by Henry PurcelI and George Crumb, from performances of Brahms' Deutsches Requiem, Verdi's La Traviata, and Mozart's Le nozze Di Figaro impressively confirm her reputation as "the most versatiIe and exciting young femaIe singer of today."
