ABOUT

© Robin Davies
Océane Deweirder is a French high mezzo soprano, interpreter of the lyric repertoire, stage director and creator of transdisciplinary performances around the opera voice.
Having the opera voice as a center and dance and drama as branches, Océane comes from a versatile and european background which she induces in her performing commitment.
She graduated from a Masters in singing at Royal Academy of Music in 2020 and then specialised in the baroque repertoire along Stéphane Fuget in the Baroque opera course of the Paris Regional Conservatoire.
Her training also includes studying under Jean-Laurent Cochet in his professional drama course; under prima ballerina Marga Nativo and choreographer Keith Ferrone as a Bachelor in Dance alumni of the Florence Dance Center (It); and under writter and musicologist Rodolfo Tommasi in Philosophy of Arts and Languages at the Accademia Europea di Firenze (Florence, It).
Active in the baroque, classical, romantic and contemporary repertoires, Océane has performed as a soloist in operas or concerts in France (Opéra royal de Versailles, Chapelle royale, Festival Embaroquement immédiat...), London (Susie Sainsbury Theatre), Florence (Palazzo Pitti), Berlin (Berlin Opera Festival) and Helsinki (Musiikitalo).
More recently, she has been working with ensembles such as Ensemble Matheus - Jean-Christophe Spinosi, Les Epopées - Stéphane Fuget and Stylus Luxurians - Galel Sanchez & Maud Sinda.
On the contemporary side, she has created pieces for composers at venues such as Sound & Vision London Festival, Aix-en-Provence June Festival and Helsinki's SibaFest.
While nurturing her activity as an opera singer, Océane creates pluridisciplinary projects around lyrical singing (Aria, Blind spots, Rhétorique du Sauvage, Notes sur la mélodie des choses...).
From 2023, she works as an opera stage director exploring the relationship between singing, movement and drama (La colombe de Bouddha, Reynaldo Hahn with Cie Les Conteurs lyriques ; La magia delusa by Antonio Bertali and L'Elice, by Pietro Ziani, at the Early Music Festival of la Roya).
In 2025-2026, she joins the new creation of Vimala Pons (Honda Romance) as singer-performer for a francophone tour.
