Born into a Swiss-Hungarian family of artists in 1995, Äneas Humm joined the Zurich Boys’ Choir at the age of six and went to boarding school at the Vorarlberg State Conservatory in Feldkirch at the age of 15. This baritone then completed his vocal training at the Hochschule für Künste in Bremen and at the Juilliard School in New York. In 2022, he was honoured with the Opus Klassik award as Young Artist of the Year. Prior to this, this singer received the Deutschlandfunk sponsorship award. While still a student, he made his debut at the Bremerhaven Municipal Theatre and accepted guest engagements at the Osnabrück Theatre. Permanent engagements took him to the Nationaltheater Weimar and the Badisches Staatstheater Karlsruhe. Äneas Humm was a member of the ensemble at the St. Gallen Theatre until summer 2023, where he appeared as Papageno in Mozart’s ›Zauberflöte‹, among other roles. This was followed by debuts at the Opera di Roma as Papageno and as Harlequin at the Teatro La Fenice in Venice.

Äneas Humm is also in great demand singing concert and lied repertoire and is always a welcome guest with renowned European ensembles, at festivals and in various concert halls. In 2020, he performed Beethoven songs at Berlin’s Schloss Bellevue at the invitation of German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier. In December 2023, he once again performed Bach’s ›Weihnachtsoratorium‹ in John Neumeier’s choreography at Hamburg Staatsoper. Lieder recitals have taken this singer to the Weill Recital Hall and Alice Tully Hall in New York, the Enescu Festival in Bucharest, the Heidelberger Frühling, the Bremen Music Festival, the Beethoven House in Bonn and the two major Swiss festivals in Davos and Lucerne.
