"I am writing to express my wholehearted support for Mr. Jacobs in recognition of the remarkable impact he has had on my child, Rohan, during his time at OCSA. Mr. Jacobs unwavering support, guidance, and dedication played a pivotal role in Rohan's development as both a musician and a student in the popular music conservatory. From the moment Rohan began his journey at OCSA as a freshman, Jake has been a constant source of encouragement. His positive reinforcement and belief in Rohan's potential greatly contributed to Rohan's growth, particularly in his drumming and performance skills. Over the two years they worked together, Jake was not only an exceptional teacher but also a mentor who inspired confidence and a love for music in Rohan. One of the things I appreciated most was Jake's habit of regularly complimenting Rohan on his improvement. This feedback was incredibly motivating for Rohan and helped him stay dedicated and passionate about his craft. It was clear that Jake took the time to notice Rohan's progress, and his encouragement meant the world to him. As a parent, I always looked forward to my interactions with Jake. Our conversations were always pleasant, and it was evident that he genuinely cared about Rohan's well-being and success. Jake's commitment to the popular music conservatory was apparent in everything he did, and I am deeply appreciative of the effort and heart he put into nurturing his students. Jake's dedication to his students and his passion for teaching are qualities that make him an outstanding educator and mentor. I am grateful for the positive influence he has had on Rohan's life and am confident that he will continue to inspire and support many more students in the future.


Pop-Opera Singer has an extraordinary five-octave vocal range from bass-baritone to countertenor. Fueled by a passion for merging electronic elements with classical melodies, I strive to break generational barriers and introduce diverse audiences to the enchanting world of opera. Guided by the legacy of my grandfather, Mr. Arkadi Namatiev, a distinguished Bass-Baritone, I embarked on my musical journey at Hunter College, honing my craft under the guidance of Prof. Susan Gonzalez. With a Bachelor's and Master's from Aaron Copland Music School, Queens College, and ongoing studies with Patricia McCaffrey, I've graced renowned opera houses nationwide. Beyond the stage, I've shared my expertise at Queens Borough Community College and worldwide through master classes. Currently based in Florida, I continue to inspire through teaching and am crafting a groundbreaking crossover album, showcasing my versatility from EDM to classical genres. My commitment to philanthropy shines through "Opera Idol," a classical talent competition hosted by my sister, benefiting Cohen's Children's Medical Center under the Arkadi Foundation, where I served as Music Director from 2011 to 2015. My musical evolution is epitomized by the digital EP "Fortuna" and the international success of my latest track, "Fallin' Love."
