"Singing opens the heart." With great joy, I share my love for creativity and art with the young generation, guiding them in their artistic journey. Music is our future. "Fly and Wash Your Roots." — Aukse Marija Petroni Since 2015, I have been actively engaged in educational activities, serving as the Head of the Vocal Department at the Rostock City Music Theater Academy (Germany), Pedagogical Faculty. I also work as a Vocal Pedagogue at Käthe Kollwitz Music Gymnasium, teaching students in grades 10 to 12. Additionally, I act as a Curator and Consultant for Young Talents (Vocalists) at YARO. My role extends to being a permanent commission member in Republican Young Vocalist Competitions and mentoring young talents in the Klaipėda region through the project Music Invites Everyone. I have collaborated with Stasys Šimkus Conservatory and Klaipėda Faculty, offering masterclasses. In 2018, I served as the Chairman of the Commission at the International Oginskis Festival in Rietavas, and in 2019 and 2020, I was an instructor at the Singing Summer masterclasses during the Kintai Music Festival. Beyond teaching, I actively perform in opera, operetta, and chamber music. I have portrayed Margarita in Meister und Margarita (S. Slonimski), Leonore in Fidelio (L. van Beethoven), Tosca in Tosca (G. Puccini), Amelia in Un Ballo in Maschera (G. Verdi), Ariadne in Ariadne auf Naxos (R. Strauss), Elektra in Elektra (R. Strauss), Elisabeth in Tannhäuser (R. Wagner), Santuzza in Cavalleria Rusticana (P. Mascagni), and Charlotte in Werther (J. Massenet). My operetta roles include Hanna Glawari in The Merry Widow (F. Lehár), Rosalinde in Die Fledermaus (J. Strauss II), and the Princess of Czardas in Die Csárdásfürstin (E. Kálmán). I am also passionate about chamber and oratorio performances, having participated in the Mecklenburg State Chamber Music Festival, the Mörbisch Festival, and the Glyndebourne Festival in Great Britain. My repertoire includes Rückert-Lieder (G. Mahler), Wesendonck Lieder (R. Wagner), Requiem (G. Verdi, A. Dvořák), as well as Christmas Oratorio and St. Matthew Passion (J. S. Bach).
