Is this a valid expansion of $\log(\sin(x))$?

I was playing around with Euler’s infinite product for the sine function, when it occurred to me.

$$\sin(x)=x\prod_{n=1}^{\infty}\left(1-\frac{x^2}{n^2\pi^2}\right)$$

$$\log(\sin(x))=\log(x)+\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\log\left(1-\frac{x^2}{n^2\pi^2}\right)$$

Is this a valid series expansion? I assume so. Also, over what interval does it converge?
