My name is Janet Orsi and I am a jazz singer in the Orange County area.  My musical journey really started when I auditioned for the Orange County High School of the Arts.  At the time, I was unsure of what I wanted to do and thought I would give music a try.  I experimented with musical theatre, pop and a cappella choir, all of which I enjoyed, but wasn't sure I wanted to devote my life to.  In my second year, I took a required jazz course, where I was exposed to jazz and improvisation for the first time.  By the time I graduated, I was still wrestling with what my path would be, but knew that music was what I wanted to pursue.  So I attended Chapman University to get a strong classical foundation.  At Chapman, jazz found me again, this time in the form of Professor Albert Alva, who approached me to offer me a place in the school big band as the fronting vocalist.  The first day I walked into that rehearsal hall, I knew I had found my people and my calling.  I completed my studies at Chapman, earning a double bachelors degree in vocal performance and music education.  All the while, I was out attending nightly jams and jazz gigs, singing with the big band and booking gigs of my own.  Since, I've sang with many incredible musicians and played a variety of venues throughout Orange County and Los Angeles.  Currently, I have the amazing opportunity to be living in Valencia, Spain while I work towards a masters degree in contemporary performance from Berklee College of Music, Valencia Campus.
