Tomotaka Okamoto was born December 3, 1976 in Kouchi, Japan. He is a “sopranista”, a male who has a female soprano vocal range voice. Most sopranistas and tenors vocalize in a falsetto technique; however, Tomotaka Okamoto is an exceptional “naturally gifted male soprano singer” who exhibits a soprano voice with the strong muscle and great breathing capacity as a man. He doesn’t have a tenor or baritone voice like a general man; his vocal mechanism is that of a female sopranist. “My voice is like a contrabass with violin strings,” Okamoto uniquely explained.
His repertory is various; he sings castrato (farinell) compositions in baroque time, opera, Japanese, classic, crossover, musical and pops. He corroborates with Japanese orchestras and artists and also overseas orchestras, such as the Moscow Philharmonic Symphony, the England Chamber Orchestra, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (London), and Prague Chamber Orchestra. He has solo concerts with piano in various parts of Japan and vibrates his miraculous voice.
