Since 2011, Robert Joseph Bartl has been working as a freelance actor for many German-speaking theatres and in recent years has also made a name for himself with his readings and his collaboration with musicians, including »Die Nachtigall des Zaren« for voice and counter-tenor at the Münchner Residenzwoche and Franz von Pocci's »Zaubergeige« for voice, violin and piano at the European Weeks Festival in Passau.
