Malachi Kanfer is entering his fourth year of vocal study at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music, where he studies with Salvatore Champagne. Since matriculating in 2007, he has performed many operatic roles, including Mr. Gobineau (Oberlin Opera Theater 2010) from The Medium, Betto (Oberlin in Italy 2009) from Gianni Schicchi and Figaro (Oberlin Opera Theater 2009) from Le Nozze di Figaro.
Kanfer claims musical achievements outside of opera as well. A violin student for twelve years under Zoran Stoyanovitch and Beth Weingroff, he performed with the Columbus Symphony Youth and Cadet Orchestras from 2005 to 2007. Further, Kanfer is an enthusiastic guitar player, studying classical and rock guitar under Kevin Holland for five years. He often plays and sings at coffee shops and bars in both Columbus and Oberlin.
In his free time, Kanfer scours political blogs, follows the Philadelphia Phillies with "phanatical" zeal and spends as much time with his friends as possible. Kanfer is a native of Bexley and lives only a half-block from Agudas Achim Synagogue!
