Pedro Beriso is a conductor, pianist, continuist and vocal coach whose artistic identity is rooted in the operatic repertoire. A summa cum laude graduate of the Escola Superior de Música de Catalunya in Barcelona, where he studied conducting, piano and voice, he went on to refine his craft at the National Opera Studio in London with the support of the Royal Opera House. His artistic development was further shaped during a two-year residency at the International Opera Studio of Opernhaus Zürich.
From 2016 to 2024, he was a member of the music staff of Opera Vlaanderen, serving as pianist and repetiteur. Alongside his operatic engagements, he is also in demand as a teacher and vocal coach, regularly returning to the Dutch National Opera Studio in Amsterdam and the Salzburg Festival’s Young Singers Project.
With a repertoire spanning more than 60 operatic titles, Pedro Beriso has collaborated with a distinguished roster of conductors, including Robin Ticciati, Fabio Luisi, Trevor Pinnock, Enrique Mazzola, Philippe Herreweghe, Gianluca Capuano and Raphaël Pichon. He has served as pianist in masterclasses led by Carlos Chausson, Neil Shicoff, Angelika Kirschlager, Ann Murray, Brigitte Fassbaender, Kiri Te Kanawa and Cecilia Bartoli.
Since 2019 he has regularly appeared at the Glyndebourne Festival as pianist and senior vocal coach. He made his Salzburg Festival debut in 2023 as principal vocal coach and continuo player in Le nozze di Figaro with the Vienna Philharmonic under Raphaël Pichon. He was subsequently invited by Cecilia Bartoli to return to Salzburg for the 2024 production of La clemenza di Tito, followed by Hotel Metamorphosis (assisting Gianluca Capuano) and Zaide (assisting Raphaël Pichon) in 2025, and Così fan tutte in 2026 with the Vienna Philharmonic under Joana Mallwitz.
He made his opera conducting debut in 2022 at Opera Vlaanderen with Così fan tutte and Mozart Concert Arias. In 2023 he co-created and conducted the production Ändere die Welt! for Dutch National Opera, later revived at the Semperoper Dresden for the 2024/25 and 2025/26 seasons. In 202, he conducted Rossini’s L’occasione fa il ladro at Theater an der Wien’s Kammeroper, to great acclaim from audiences and critics. The 2026 season brings conducting debuts with Nederlandse Reisopera in La Cenerentola and Theater St. Gallen in Alcina, alongside a concert tour with star soprano Bruno de Sá.
