Jamal Michael Moore

Bass-Baritone Jamal Moore is currently a sophomore at the Eastman School of Music majoring in vocal performance. He is from Augusta, Georgia where he participated in various performance ensembles and churches throughout the city. His musical history stretches mainly from the walls of his former chorus room at Davidson Fine Arts Magnet High School under the direction of Dr. James Dunaway and his voice teacher Patti Myers. In 2008, he held the title of State Champion for Boy’s Solo Region 3-AAA.

Jamal currently studies with Professor Jan Opalach and through the hard work of himself and his teacher, Jamal received the freshman jury award, was invited to sing for the Gateways Music Festival in Rochester, NY, and is cast as Buff in the 2010 winter production of Mozart’s The Impressario. Jamal hopes to one day follow in the footsteps of great singers like William Warfield and is proud to have been chosen as this year's recipient.
