About Valdis
I am Valdis Jansons, an internationally acclaimed operatic baritone and Assistant Professor of Voice & Opera at the University of Michigan. I have performed more than 60 operatic roles in over 70 theaters worldwide, including Teatro alla Scala in Milan, Teatro San Carlo in Naples, the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow, Theater an der Wien, and Lincoln Center in New York.
My artistic development took place in Italy, where I studied at the Conservatorio Arrigo Boito in Parma and attended the Accademia Rossiniana in Pesaro and the Accademia Pucciniana in Torre del Lago. This experience shaped my deep understanding of the Italian vocal tradition, particularly bel canto—the art of beautiful, free, expressive singing.
I hold a Doctor of Musical Arts (DMA) in Voice from the University of California, Santa Barbara. My repertoire spans a wide range of styles, with particular expertise in Italian opera and bel canto, as well as extensive experience in Russian repertoire.
I bring the perspective of an international performer and university professor to every lesson, helping singers develop their voices, musicality, and confidence through a natural, healthy approach to singing.
