Jonathan Paulsen (Baritone)

Born: April 19, 1998 - Brandenburg, Germany

The German baritone, Jonathan Paulsen, grew up in Brandenburg as the son of a violinist and a cellist. After initially studying music education with viola as his principal subject at the Studied at Hochschule für Musik, Theater und Medien Hannover (December 2018-July 2023), he turned to vocal studies and, since December 2023, has been studying at the Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst Stuttgart in the class of Professor Thilo Dahlmann.

As a concert soloist, he is particularly dedicated to the oratorio repertoire, which forms a central focus of his artistic work. Important musical impulses came through collaborations with Peter Kooij and Jörg Straube. He also maintains a strong affinity for art song. His work in this field has been shaped by Doriana Tchakarova and Professor Götz Payer, as well as by his artistic partnership with pianist Yu Tashiro, with whom he presented his first song recitals.

Alongside his solo activities, Jonathan Paulsen is an experienced ensemble singer. He has performed with the Kammerchor Stuttgart (Director: Frieder Bernius) and was a member of the Schola of the Rundfunkchor Berlin. In 2025, he made his operatic debut as Jupiter in Offenbach’s Orpheus in der Unterwelt (Opera Laiblin e.V.)
