He learned to play the piano at the age of 8, encouraged by his father and grandfather who passed on to him their passion for classical music, Wagner and singing. Jonas Kaufmann also frequently attended the Munich Opera from an early age and joined his school choir. He then embarked on studies of mathematics, which he abandoned to join, in 1989, the Academy of Music and Theater in Munich. Jonas Kaufmann gets his first important role at the Regensburg Opera where he is Caramello in A Night in Venice by Johann Strauss. Jonas Kaufmann then met Helmut Deutsch who guided him in his vocal development and still accompanies him today on the piano in his recitals.
