Biography

Tenor Bastien Masset is originally from Gruyère. Born into a family of musicians, he devoted himself to studying music from an early age. After obtaining a professional certificate in music theory and a certificate in violin, he developed a passion for singing in various choral groups.

Now a member of the Kammerchor Stuttgart and the Zürcher Sing-Akademie, his rich choral career in Switzerland, France, and Germany has led him to sing in ensembles such as the Ensemble Vocal de Lausanne, the Balthasar Neumann Chor, the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir, and the Basler Madrigalisten under the baton of renowned conductors such as Gabriel García Alarcón, Daniel Reuss, Frieder Bernius, Florian Helgath, Thomas Hengelbrock, Tõnu Kaljuste, Christoph Eschenbach, and Raphaël Pichon.

His season continues with the role of the Evangelist in Bach's St. John Passion in Zug and as a soloist in Honegger's Le Roi David in Geneva, followed by a tour of Italy and Germany with Paulus and Mendelssohn's Te Deum with the Kammerchor Stuttgart.
