The Juilliard School will showcase tenor Miles Mykkanen in a performance at Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall on January 30, 2025. Accompanied by pianist Adam Rothenberg, this concert is part of the prestigious Alice Tully Vocal Recital series, which highlights the talents of outstanding Vocal Arts alumni.
Founded through a generous donation from the Alice Tully Foundation, the annual recital serves as an important platform for emerging artists in the field of vocal performance. It marks a significant milestone in the professional journeys of its performers, offering them the opportunity to present their artistry at one of the world’s most renowned venues.
Myles Mykkanen will deliver a diverse program featuring works from celebrated composers including Jean Sibelius, Erkki-Sven Tüür, Sergei Rachmaninov, Benjamin Britten, and Franz Schubert. This selection not only highlights Mykkanen’s versatility but also reflects the rich tradition of vocal music that the recital aims to honor.
In addition to his upcoming performance, Mykkanen has recently made notable appearances at the Metropolitan Opera. He starred in the production of “The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay” and is set to return in April 2025 for the premiere of Kaija Saariaho’s opera “Innocence.” His growing reputation in the opera world is further evidenced by his upcoming debuts at the Seattle Opera, where he will portray Leukippos in Richard Strauss’ “Daphne,” and at the LA Opera as Tamino in Barrie Kosky’s acclaimed production of “The Magic Flute.”
Mykkanen’s performance at Carnegie Hall represents not just an opportunity for personal achievement, but also a celebration of the ongoing legacy of the Juilliard School in cultivating remarkable talents in the world of music. This event promises to be a significant highlight for both the artist and the audience, showcasing the dedication and artistry that characterize today’s vocal performers.
Tickets for the concert will be available through the Juilliard School and Carnegie Hall’s respective box offices, providing an accessible way for music enthusiasts to experience this exceptional event.
