Bayreuth Artist Talk: Matthew Newlin
Join us in 2025 for the Bayreuth Artists Talks Series, an engaging opportunity to connect with the exceptional performers of the Bayreuth Festival. These intimate sessions offer audiences a rare glimpse behind the scenes as artists reflect on their careers, share insights into their roles and creative processes, and discuss the unique experience of performing at Bayreuth. With a relaxed and informal setting, these conversations provide a deeper understanding of the works the artists bring to life on stage, making each event a memorable encounter with the people behind the music.
Matthew Newlin (Eisslinger in Die Meistersinger, Junger Seemann in Tristan und Isolde, 4th Knappe in Parsifal) has been a member of the ensemble at Deutsche Oper Berlin since 2013, where he regularly performs such leading roles as Tamino, Don Jose, Alfredo, and Count Almaviva. He enjoys an international career, performing in major theatres across Europe, and can be heard in recordings of Handel’s Semele and Samson. Matthew’s versatile singing, excellent musicianship, and natural stagecraft affords him success in a wide range of repertoire, from the Baroque to the Modern. This coming season he’ll also be performing the role of Siegmund in Die Walküre at Deutsche Oper Berlin.
This in-person-only event will take place at the Arvena Kongress Hotel in Bayreuth, Germany.
