Lithuanian tenor Edgaras Montvidas has joined the roster of IMG Artists.

He will be represented by Senior Vice President and Head of European Vocal, Sam Snook, from the company’s London office.

In a statement, Snook said, “I first heard Edgaras at the Santa Fe Opera, of all places, and was immediately drawn to his singing and artistry. I’ve been following his career ever since, and am so happy to have the opportunity to work with him.”

Montvidas added, “I’m thrilled to begin a new chapter in my artistic journey with Sam Snook and IMG Artists. Meeting Sam felt like reconnecting with an old friend—his inspiring personality and profound knowledge of music and opera are truly remarkable. I’m confident that our collaboration will be both fruitful and full of exciting opportunities.”

Montvidas was educated in Vilnius before joining the Young Artists Programme at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden. He has performed with major opera houses including the Staatsoper Berlin, Theater an der Wien, Zürich Opernhaus, Opéra National du Rhin in Strasbourg, Opéra de Lausanne, Norwegian National Opera, Opera North, Dutch National Opera, and Oper Frankfurt, among many others.

This season he performs Andres in “Wozzeck” in concert with Sir Simon Rattle and the Bayerische Rundfunks Orchester, Laca in “Jenůfa” with Opéra de Montreal, Count Vaudémont in “Iolanta” with Finnish National Opera, and Pinkerton in “Madame Butterfly” with Opéra de Toulon.
