I build websites
for opera singers.
Because I am one.
Nico Tamagna. Countertenor. Developer. The rare designer who's actually sung at the Met, toured with period ensembles across three continents, and knows why your Handel roles need different architecture than your Strauss. Fifteen years on international stages taught me what no design school could: how artists actually get hired, what artistic administrators look for, and why most musician websites fundamentally miss the point. I started building sites for myself. Word spread. Now I serve singers, ensembles, and arts organizations worldwide — plus custom tools for repertoire management, press systems, and career dashboards. Based in Oldenburg, Germany. Working in English, German, French, and Italian. Building websites the way I'd prepare a role: every detail intentional.

Who I am
Most designers learn about classical music from Wikipedia. I've lived it. I know why a mezzo's Rossini roles need their own section. I know what casting directors scroll past and what makes them pause. I understand fach, repertoire conventions, and the unspoken hierarchies of our industry. I've sung opposite Joyce DiDonato at the Met. I've premiered forgotten Baroque operas at Bayreuth. I've toured with period ensembles from Poland to Australia. This isn't research — it's my life.
Beyond individual artist sites, I develop custom tools: repertoire management systems, press carousels, event calendars, career dashboards. I run digital strategy for Forum Neue Kunst in Germany, where I also serve as board chair and recently produced the Münstermann Festival featuring a reconstruction of Germany's first opera. I build websites the way I prepare a role: every detail intentional, every element in service of the whole.
