During his tenure, he performed as Stone/Eunuch in Bright Sheng’s Dreams of the Red Chamber, Gastone in La traviata, covered the roles of Alfredo in La traviata and Lensky in Eugene Onegin, sang Rodolfo in SFO’s Bohème Out of the Box, covered the title role in Omar, and performed as Ruiz in Il trovatore.

We are so excited to welcome back Julie Miller to the stage as a soloist for this weekend’s Beethoven Symphony No. 9 performances! You might remember seeing Julie in La Traviata with us just a few months ago!

Hailed for the “arresting color” (Cincinnati Enquirer) of her voice, Julie Miller has appeared as a soloist with orchestras and opera companies throughout the U.S.A Most notably, she has appeared on the stage of the Lyric Opera of Chicago as Emilia in Otello, Annina (La Traviata), Ida (Die Fledermaus), Baroness Nica in Charlie Parker’s Yardbird, and Krystina (The Passenger). Her performance of the title role in Handel’s Ariodante was described by the Chicago Classical Review as an “admirable and professional performance” and by the Chicago Tribune as “deeply musical.” Other assignments with the company include understudies of Octavian in Der Rosenkavalier and Waltraute in Die Walküre.
