Pierrette Thomet - Mezzo-Soprano

A versatile classical singer with many years of solo performance experience, and her repertoire ranges from Baroque to Broadway. She draws from her linguistic skills an enhanced ability to communicate the classical repertoire to audiences and students alike. A native of Switzerland, Pierrette grew up in a multi-lingual environment and trained as a translator before gaining a BA in Music from Reading University and a Diploma in Opera Performance Studies from the University of London. She pursues her vocal development with the acclaimed international soprano and Professor of Voice at the Royal Academy of Music, Alison Pearce. Pierrette has given recitals in Britain as well as her native Switzerland. Her oratorio performances include Dvorak's Mass in D, Mozart's Coronation Mass as well as works by Bach, Handel and Gibbons. Her operatic roles include Kate in Britten's Owen Wingrave and Antonia's Mother in Offenbach's Tales of Hoffmann with Abbey Opera. She has also performed staged excerpts from Cosi fan tutte, Walton's The Bear, The Magic Flute, Eugene Onegin and Falstaff as part of concerts and summer courses in Poland, Italy and Great Britain. Future engagements include Mozart's Requiem as well as voice and harp recitals in Britain and Switzerland. Pierrette is based in Reading, where she has a successful teaching practice. She also coaches singers and accompanists in French, German and Italian pronunciation, both privately and on summer courses. She is a member of the Incorporated Society of Musicians.
