Last October, without much fuss, the Deutsche Oper Berlin appointed Yi-Chen Lin as its first Kapellmeister.

Covid has prevented her debut month after month but tonight she is stepping onto the parking deck of the opera house to conduct a new production of a British opera, Mark-Anthony Turnage’s anti-establishment ‘Greek’.

Born in Taiwan, raised in Vienna, Lin was mentored by Alberto Zedda at the Rossini Festival in Pesaro.

Interview here.
