Sai Soho was born in Beijing and graduated from Beijing Normal University in 1988. He came to Japan in 1992 and entered the Graduate School of the Tokyo University of the Arts in 1994, where he completed his master’s degree in 1998. He studied in the United States for a short period in that same year. His performances in Untitled Concert on TV Asahi and in operas such as Hansel and Gretel, Pagliacci, Carmen and Macbeth have been extremely well received. Soho studied under Seiichiro Sato, Taikai Takahashi, Teruo Sanbayashi and Eiko Seyama.
He is a baritone who captivates audiences of a wide age range with his large 188-cm frame and a supple and sweet voice unique to those who grew up on the Asian continent. The program, featuring not only classics but also well-known songs that everyone can sing along with, will create a friendly atmosphere. His annual recital with his opera-singing brothers is a globally unique event and so popular that it fills the hall to capacity each year. Particularly impressive is his singing of Chinese songs in a broad-reaching scale. Soho was a soloist in the Ninth Symphony in the Great Hall of the Viennese Music Association in 2010, a highly successful performance. He received the Incentive Awards of the 18th and 21st Sogakudo Japanese Song Contests. He is a member of the Japan Vocalist Forum.
