Thank you so much for Mariam Bombrun for kicking off our summer takeover series yesterday! While we are disappointed our concert in Harlem was canceled, we're glad we would share a little performance with some audience members while sheltering from the rain. ⛈️

Mariam is not on social media, but you can get in touch with her via her website www.mariam-bombrun.com or on LinkedIn at in/mariambombrun. She has some exciting projects coming up!

There is still one more opportunity to see us tomorrow at Historic Richmond Town in Staten Island at 7 PM. You can also see our Met Opera colleagues perform on Monday at the SummerStage in Central Park at 8 PM and on Wednesday at the Brooklyn Bridge Park at 7 PM. We hope to see you there!

Join us this summer as we follow some of our recent LYADP alumni take their next steps in their careers! We will kick things off this Friday with pianist and diction coach Mariam Bombrun, who is performing with fellow Lindemann Artists at Jackie Robinson Park as part of the City Parks Foundation's SummerStage Festival.

Mariam made her Met Music Staff debut during the 2024–25 season as an Assistant Conductor for Le Nozze di Figaro. This past season, she served as music staff for the Met's revival of Carmen and played orchestra piano and celesta in the Met’s mid-season revival of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay. During both of her years with the LYADP, she prepared and performed in the Program's concert of opera scenes, the annual recital series held at the Bruno Walter Auditorium and Merkin Hall, and the Met Orchestra Workshop with Maestro Yannick Nézet-Séguin. She will serve on music staff for Die Zauberflöte at Aspen Opera Theater later this summer, before joining the music staff of the Polish National Opera under the music direction of Yoel Gamzou in the fall. Recent operatic engagements include Tosca, Falstaff, and Castor et Pollux at the Paris Opera, L’Enfant et les Sortilèges in concert with the San Diego Symphony, Rigoletto at Volksoper Wien, among others. She is an alumna of the Paris Opera Academy, Saluzzo Opera Academy, and the Music and Arts University of the City of Vienna.

We had the pleasure of participating in the Met's Spring Weekend last week by hosting a masterclass with Tristan himself, Michael Spyres!

Lindsay Martin, Ben Reisinger, Sunghoon Han, Mariam Bombrun, Ye In Kwak, and Michał Skowronek gave exceptional performances to a full crowd of Met Patrons and Laffont Competition supporters. Thank you, Michael, for sharing your expertise with us!

There are only three more opportunities to see Tristan und Isolde, on stage at the Met through April 4. Get your tickets to what the New York Times called "the event of the season" while you still can! Standing room tickets will be available for all performances and will go on sale at 10:00 AM EDT on the day of each remaining performance.
