With a voice of arresting depth and rare expressive power, Noa Beinart is rapidly carving out a distinct place on international stages. A true contralto, she moves seamlessly between eras and styles, from the intricate lyricism of the Baroque to the towering emotional and vocal demands of Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen.

In the 2025/26 season, Noa makes her role debut as Handel’s Orlando in a new production at the Opéra national de Lorraine and Opéra de Caen, conducted by Christophe Rousset.

Press

"It was at the entry of Noa Beinart, statuesque and premonitory, as the earth goddess Erda in the climactic turning point of the fourth and final scene, that the full triumph of casting in Simone Young’s concert performance of Das Rheingold became complete." Sydney Morning Herald

"Noa Beinart: a name to remember!" Der Kurier

"Noa Beinart, on the other hand, brought untold joy as Erda. Finally we have a real contralto in the ensemble again. This role should actually only be sung by altos and not by mezzo-sopranos, who then only press in the lower range. Noa Beinart let her warm voice flow impasto. Wonderful!" Online Merker

"The Erda (Noa Beinart) delivers a flawless performance" Wiener Zeitung

"As in Rheingold, Erda was cast with Noa Beinart, and despite her youthful age for Wagner, she managed to portray the wise primordial mother in a convincing way, both vocally and in terms of acting - her scene with the Wanderer was another highlight of the evening." Bachtrack
