Brian Jagde—one of the most sought-after lyric-spinto tenors of his generation, a regular at San Francisco, the Metropolitan, La Scala, and Covent Garden—shares with the young singers at the Academy a path that has not been entirely straightforward: he began as a baritone before discovering his tenor voice and winning Plácido Domingo’s Operalia competition. The masterclass focuses on Puccini and Verdi roles that demand stamina and a resonant voice—Cavaradossi, Pinkerton, Calaf. As an ambassador for Opera for Peace, he speaks the same language as the project.
