The American baritone, Jason Augustus Rober, studied Music Education at State University of New York at Fredonia (2016-2020), where he studied with Dr. Kimberly Upcraft; and studied for his Master of Music degree in Voice Performance at Eastman School of Music, University of Rochester (2021-2023), in the studio of Jan Opalach.
Jason Rober has performed opera roles that span the history of the art form, from Giove in Cavalli’s La Calisto to Mortimer in Anthony Davis’ Lear on the Second Floor. While a student at Eastman, he performed as a concert soloist with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra and the Western New York Chamber Orchestra, as well as with top ensembles local to Rochester, New York, such as Publick Musick and VOICES. A lover of all things baroque, he has had the pleasure of being a soloist in many cantatas of J.S. Bach, and was a young artist with the Boston Early Music Festival in 2023. In 2024, he was a finalist in Colorado Bach Ensemble’s competition for young artists, and was a Virginia Adams Best Fellow at the Carmel Bach Festival. |
