Jonathan Tetelman

Lauded for his "vocally magnificent, radiant and distinctive tenor” voice (Opera Aktuell), Jonathan Tetelman has rapidly risen to become a major star of his generation. Chilean-born and New Jersey-raised, Tetelman continues to thrill on the world’s greatest stages with "balmy verve" (Der Tagesspiegel) and a "darkly colored tenor timbre" (SZ). In the 2023/24 season, Tetelman makes his tremendously anticipated Metropolitan Opera debut as Ruggero in in La rondine under the baton of Speranza Scappucci, followed closely by appearances as Pinkerton in the Met’s iconic Madama Butterfly of Anthony Minghella. He sees additional performances of Pinkerton with Teatro Massimo di Palermo, Festival Aix-en-Provence, and Deutsche Oper Berlin, where he also debuts the role of Luigi (Il tabarro) in Pınar Karabulut’s new production of Puccini’s Il trittico. Jonathan Tetelman recently signed an exclusive multi-album contract with Deutsche Grammophon. Together with the Orquesta Filarmónica de Gran Canaria and its principal conductor Karel Mark Chichon, he recorded his first album, entitled “Arias”, with music by Verdi and famous Verismo composers, a selection from the lyrical French repertoire, and duets with the Lithuanian soprano Vida Miknevičiûtė. It was released on August 12, 2022. His highly anticipated second album "The Great Puccini" was released by Deutsche Grammophon in 2023, followed by Tosca in 2025.
