A previous BBC New Generation Artist and Royal Academy of Music graduate, Irish tenor Robin Tritschler is acclaimed for his "radiantly lyrical" voice, garnering praise from critics and audiences alike.
This season Robin sings concert performances of Purcell’s King Arthur with Le Concert Spirituel and Hervé Niquet in Paris and Bordeaux, Bach's Christmas Oratorio with the Wiener Symphoniker and Fabio Biondi, Mozart's Great Mass in C minor with the Gulbenkian Orchestra and Sofi Jeannin and Mendelssohn’s Lobgesang with the Västerås Sinfonietta and Simon Crawford-Philips. Robin will also give recitals with Magnus Svensson at the Konserthuset Stockholm and with Iain Burnside at Wigmore Hall.
Recent highlights have included Monteverdi’s Vespers with Ensemble Pygmalion and Raphaël Pichon, Beethoven’s 9th Symphony in the Paris Philharmonie, performances with Scottish Chamber Orchestra under Václav Luks, the Antwerp Symphony Orchestra, and Bartok’s Cantata Profana with the BBCSO under Dalia Stasevska. Robin made his debut at the Seoul Arts Center in the premiere of The Rising World and at the PyeongChang Festival with concerts of Britten’s Serenade and The Turn of the Screw. Robin also made his Australian recital debut at Ukaria with Olli Mustonen, and returned to Wigmore Hall, London.

Recital | Ina Boyle with Ian Burnside, Ailish Tynan & Paula Murrihy
Wigmore Hall / Mar 2026
"Tenor Robin Tritschler brought us dynamic expression of all varieties in his material, and magnificence was to be found in the spooky contrasts of volume in Boyle’s A song of Enchantment and the bold forte of The Joy of Earth."

Schumann’s Das Paradies und die Peri | Alexander Shelley | National Symphony Orchestra Ireland
National Concert Hall, Dublin / Feb 2026
"Tritschler’s narrator brought finely focused energy, his clear Baroque-leaning timbre cutting through the texture with ease, especially in the upper register. His elegance and restraint contrasted with the sultry tones of Chaieb who radiated warmth as the Angel."
Bachtrack
"Robin Tritschler was outstanding and the clarity and focused tone of his voice never lost its intensity."
Journal of Music
"Robin Tritschler took on the role of the narrator and gave a sensitive and lyrical performance. He allowed Schumann’s arioso lines to flow and bloom. He doubled up as the young man in the second part and successfully conveyed the weakness and fragility of the character."
Seen and Heard International
Handel’s Messiah | Kristian Bezuidenhout | Royal Northern Sinfonia
The Glasshouse / Dec 2025
"The four soloists had been judiciously cast, all with youthful voices and excellent diction. Robin Tritschler’s ‘Comfort Ye… Ev’ry Valley’ had just the right amount of plaintive appeal, and his decorations were impressive without being self-indulgent."

Gramophone's Song Award 2025
"This superb album underlines the Irish tenor’s virtues – a firm, clean flexible voice allied to impeccable musicianship and unshowy artistry – in carefully chosen works that explores a key period in English musical history. […]
[Tritschler] makes these songs entirely his own, with interpretations that are intelligent, sensitive and devoid of mannerism. The music speaks eloquently, clearly for itself. […]
A fascinating, often moving programme, then, impeccably prepared, performed and recorded. In other words, a most worthy winner!"
Gramophone
"[Tritschler’s voice] is lovelier in timbre, brighter on top as well as lighter in weight—he is that rare bird nowadays, a real artist who understands words, articulates them clearly, and knows how to shape phrases in a way that is both musical and inherently dramatic...In short, he is an excellent singer and one whose work it is a distinct pleasure to listen to.
This is clearly the finest vocal recital disc of the year and one of the finest of this decade."
The Art Music Lounge
"A hearty welcome to this exceptionally stimulating programme, devised – and essayed with penetrating insight – by Robin Tritschler. With his mellifluous tone, flawless technical prowess and impeccable diction, the Irish tenor covers himself in glory throughout.
[...] you have a release that is guaranteed to provide lasting rewards."
Gramophone
"This is a powerful and rewarding release.
[...] I still listened with plenty of pleasure, buoyed by Tritschler’s intelligence, the music, and its multiple shades of feeling..."
The Times
Bartók’s Cantata Profana | Dalia Stasevska | BBC Symphony Orchestra
Barbican / Mar 2025
"Miklós Sebestyén (bass-baritone) and Robin Tritschler (tenor), as father and son respectively, were impassioned in their solo contributions, manfully facing their extreme pitches."
Bachtrack
Recital | Jonathan Ware
Wigmore Hall / Jan 2025
"A singer’s enchanting Greek odyssey
... the sweetness of Tritschler’s tone was revealed in 'Der zürnenden Diana', his dramatic flair in Atys. And while one might have wished for greater spontaneity, there was no faulting Tritschler’s crisp enunciation and Ware’s eloquent accompaniment.
The finest discoveries came in the second half and coincided with Tritschler finding fresh ease and flexibility that lifted the performance to its best.
Tritschler and Ware tapped into their turbulence, atmosphere and drama."
The Times
Handel's Messiah | Hervé Niquet | Le Concert Spirituel
Théâtre des Champs Elysées / Dec 2024
"The emotion generated by Robin Tritschler’s performances is justified not only by the accuracy of his singing and the sense of gravitas with which he imbues his live performances, but also by the humility and sincerity that emerge as he gives free rein to the expression of the different “voices” that come to life through his beautiful vocal instrument. A real bijou that we regret knowing so little about in France."
Opera Diary
Bach's Christmas Oratorio | Václav Luks | Scottish Chamber Orchestra
Queen’s Hall , Edinburgh, Nov 2024
“We followed St Luke’s Gospel with tenor Robin Tritschler as the Evangelist, completely inhabiting his role and guiding us with clear bright storytelling. His “Frohe Hirten” aria, with a delicate flute solo from André Cebrián telling the shepherds to listen to the angels, was thoughtfully and movingly delivered."
Bachtrack
Recital | UKARIA 24 | Olli Mustonen
UKARIA, Adelaide Australia / Oct 2024
"Singing this was Irish tenor Robin Tritschler, and what a wonderful artist he is. He painted a seething picture of the demigod Väinämöinen wrangling with various mythological creatures from the North with huge intensity."
In Review
Bruckner Symphony No. 9 | Nathalie Stutzmann | London Symphony Orchestra
Barbican / Feb 2024
"...and the tenor Robin Tritschler took his starring role with an appealing, Schubertian vitality, well supported by Lucy Crowe, Anna Stéphany and Alexander Tsymbalyuk."
Peter Quantrill, BachTrack
"The quartet of soloists, led by Robin Tritschler’s powerfully projected tenor…"
