Matti Salminen (born 7 July 1945, in Turku) is a Finnish bass, who has sung in all of the most important opera houses of the world, including the Metropolitan and Bayreuth Festival. He is a very large man with an enormous voice and an expressive face. According to one reviewer, in his prime Salminen was "... simply the largest bass voice in captivity. It is not just its roar in powering over Wagner's maximum orchestra, but the way he carves the sonority and forms the color. Salminen has a contract at the Zurich Opera, and he also frequently performs in his native Finland." (Wikipedia)
