Miles Mykkanen, Tenor
Adam Rothenberg, Piano
Works by Sibelius, Kilpinen, Rachmaninov, Britten, and Schubert
Juilliard is proud to present the Alice Tully Vocal Recital at Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall on Friday, January 30 at 7:30pm, featuring Finnish-American tenor Miles Mykkanen (BM ’13, MM ’15, Voice; Artist Diploma ’17, opera studies) with pianist Adam Rothenberg (MM ’18, collaborative piano). Originally established with a gift from the Alice Tully Foundation, the annual event offers an accomplished Vocal Arts alum the opportunity to perform at Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall as a major milestone in their burgeoning professional career. Mykkanen will perform a range of powerful works by Sibelius, Kilpinen, Rachmaninov, Britten, and Schubert, together with music director, conductor, and collaborative artist Rothenberg.
Mykkanen appears amid an exciting season, which has brought his performances to major houses across the United States. In September, he starred as Sam Clay in the Metropolitan Opera’s premiere run of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay. He will return in April to perform in the first Met production of Kaija Saariaho’s Innocence. He makes company and role debuts as Leukippos in Strauss’ Daphne at Seattle Opera in January and as Tamino in Barrie Kosky’s production of The Magic Flute at LA Opera this spring.
