Elise Miller, lyric mezzo soprano, is becoming increasingly well known for her impressive versatility and shimmering vocalism, spanning a wide variety of roles and genres ranging from opera to musical theatre, including femme fatales to her specialty in trouser roles and many more. Her current season includes a return to Charlottesville Opera to perform the role of Mercédès in Bizet's Carmen, as well as attending the Ravinia Steans Music Institute as a Vocal Fellow. 

Last Fall, Ms. Miller performed the role of Rosa Saks in the world premiere of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, as part of a co-production between the Metropolitan Opera and Indiana University (I.U.). In the 2023-2024 season, she was Mrs. Lovett in I.U.

A lover of jazz and cabaret music, Ms. Miller performed a varied array of German cabaret selections with an up-and-coming company called “The Wild Stage” in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 2022. 

No stranger to new music, she performed the role of Lowri in the world premiere of Rhiannon’s Condemnation by composer Leigha Amick with New Voices Opera during their 2021-2022 season.
