Berthold Klemens Possemeyer (born 20 May 1951) is a German baritone in opera and concert, and a voice teacher at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Frankfurt am Main.
[1] In 1998 he was a soloist at the Mainz Cathedral in the premiere of Volker David Kirchner's Passion music Aus den 53 Tagen with the Mainzer Domchor, conducted by Mathias Breitschaft, as part of the 93.
He participated in a recording of the Carus-Verlag of the complete sacred choral music by Felix Mendelssohn, performing the Christmas cantata Vom Himmel hoch (From Heaven above) for soprano and baritone soloists, SSATB choir and orchestra (1831).
A review noted: "In his short devout aria Es ist der Herr Christ, unser Gott the German baritone Berthold Possemeyer sensitively conveys appropriately restrained expression.
Especially affecting are his closing lines Er bringt euch alle Seligkeit .... Possemeyer is elegantly toned in his brief arioso Das also hat gefallen dir".
