HI, I’M EVA
It all started with a high school musical in which I got to sing the male lead...
From just having fun on stage at the age of 13, I slowly developed my passion for singing opera. Having received a scholarship to an American high school, I then went on to train as a classical singer with degrees from The Mannes College of Music and Yale University.
Here you will find some recent Highlights

behind the account
This account was built between rehearsals, auditions, jet lag, and quiet hotel rooms.
I spent over 20 years on the world’s biggest stages as an operatic singer—living the dream, yes, but also carrying the invisible weight that comes with it: pressure, expectations, self-doubt, and a nervous system constantly pushed to its limits.
I learned early that talent alone is never the full story.
What truly determines longevity, consistency, and joy in this profession is what happens behind the voice: the mind, the body, the inner regulation, the strategy, and the courage to keep going when things feel uncertain.
The Primer
Alongside my professional life, presence and awareness became central practices.
Influenced by the teachings of Eckhart Tolle and meditation, I began approaching performance not through force, but through regulation, focus, and trust.
What I'm
loving
I’m loving the things that truly nourish me: Time with my family, meaningful conversations, music that opens something inside. I often return to the sound world of Ennio Morricone, to reading, and to dancing—sometimes as movement, sometimes as release.
What I'm
learning
I’m learning to slow down and be present.
To listen more deeply—to myself, to others, and to what life is asking in each moment. Awareness has become an anchor for me, inspired in part by the teachings of Eckhart Tolle and the simple practice of returning to the now.
What I'm
not about
I’m not interested in superficial solutions or surface-level success.
I believe in depth, honesty, and work that respects the complexity of being human—especially in artistic and high-performance lives.
what I
believe
At my core, I believe in the meeting point between intention and effort.
In manifestation paired with dedicated work.

I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”

partnerships & collaborations
I am a professional classical singer with a deep love for the stage—
for recitals, opera, and concert work—and I actively welcome bookings and artistic collaborations worldwide.
Alongside my performing career, I work as a voice coach and mentor for singers who seek not only technical excellence, but longevity, confidence, and artistic clarity in a demanding profession.
