Richard Wagner "Siegfried" - Mime
Opera Australia - December 2023
As Mime, Andreas Conrad lets his talents shine, and he uses them thoroughly: be it his unbelievably modulated voice, which can be carried in all volume levels, be it his perfect word clarity, be it his delicious acting, from fearful to cunning, from loving to hateful - a model interpretation of this role!
Andreas Conrad, who plays Mime, negotiates the extraordinary vocal acrobatics of his part with a clean and agile tenor, and delivers the endless succession of lies with a Protean flexibility of facial expression.
As Mime, Andreas Conrad continues with his marvelous, weasel-like caricature you findyourself momentarily sympathizing with.
the Mime of Andreas Conrad revealed an incisive and well-focused tenor.”

Andres Conrad also has no problems with the role of Mime, which in principle is always somewhat thankless, and masters its pitfalls with great tenor power.
Der neue Merker, Klaus Billand, March 5, 2024
“Andreas Conrad’s Mime demonstrated vocal versatility for the double aspect, evil and funny, without ever falling into the caricatured or grotesque.”

"Andreas Conrad was able to SING his (Alberichs) Nibelung - Brother Mime completely to the End, without faking und cheating und dead certain in the heights "

Staatsoper Munich - March 2015
Accuracy is also a benefit shown at the "parlando" between Mime and Siegfried. Andreas Conrad performs an admirable, very precise declaimed MIME. His bright, strong tenor allows him, really to sing his part and not to bicker.
