Tenor Demetrios Jussi Tsinopoulos was born and
raised in Greece to a Greek-American father and a
Finnish mother. This multicultural and multilingual
heritage was instilled in him from an early age.
He was introduced to the world of opera through his
uncle, tenor Antonio Theba, and his aunt, the former
actress and dramaturg Paya Veaki. Following his
uncle’s untimely death, he was accepted into the
prestigious National Conservatory of Athens where
he studied voice with Despoina Kalafati.
Concurrently, he also pursued acting studies at the
renowned Veaki Drama School, establishing a
strong foundation in both vocal and theatrical
performance.
After completing his studies in Greece, he moved to
New York City to continue his operatic training.
There he became a pupil of the internationally
respected tenor and teacher Jack LiVigni. He further
refined his artistry through work with several
distinguished teachers and coaches including
Salvatore Fisichella with whom he completed an
intensive masterclass in Rome, earning certification
for his vocal and artistic achievement. He has also
worked with celebrated bass Dimitri Kavrakos vocal
coach William Hicks pianist and longtime
collaborator of Luciano Pavarotti and maestro

technical development has continued under the
guidance of tenor Giovanni Ribichesu.
Demetrios Jussi Tsinopoulos has performed over
200 times on both the opera and concert stages
presenting opera arias and art songs in a wide range
of languages styles and musical traditions. This
breadth of experience has helped shape him into a
versatile and communicative artist with a strong
affinity for both dramatic and concert repertoire.
During his years in the United States he appeared
frequently in both opera and concert performances.
His U.S. debut took place at Carnegie Hall in May
2015 where he created the role of the High Priest in
*Porphyra* a Greek opera by B. Chrissochos. In
2016 he made his Lincoln Centre debut in the title
role of Heracles in *Olympic Flame* by P. Karousos
marking the historic first performance of a Greek
opera at Lincoln Centre. He later reprised the role in
an open-air performance at Athens Square Park in
New York.
In the same year he was honoured as a 2016
Cultural Grant Recipient of the American-
Scandinavian Foundation representing Finland and
performed songs by Jean Sibelius at the award
ceremony. He also appeared in Pazardjik, Bulgaria,
under the auspices of UNESCO presenting a
programme of arias and songs.
In 2017 he served as principal performer for the
Finland Centennial Celebration in New York City
organised by the Finlandia Foundation and
performed regularly at Finnish Independence Day
celebrations and charitable events including works
by Sibelius and other Finnish and Scandinavian
composers. During the same period he also
appeared in Marco Bozzari / Markos Botsaris by P.
Carrer including performances connected with its
modern revival and presentation in the United
States. In recognition of his artistic activity and
cultural contribution he has been honoured twice by
UNESCO for his contributions to culture and
classical music and recognised as an ambassador
of Hellenic classical music internationally.
In 2019 he organised and performed in a major
charity concert at Lincoln Center’s Bruno Walter
Auditorium raising $20,000 for the Hellenic Relief
Foundation in Greece which later recognised his
dedication and efforts.
Following the pandemic years he relocated to
