Bryan Hymel wins the Beverly Sills Award

We congratulate tenor Bryan Hymel on winning the Beverly Sills Award. 



The Met Press Release:
Tenor Bryan Hymel has been named the recipient of the eighth annual Beverly Sills Artist Award for young singers at the Metropolitan Opera. The $50,000 award, the largest of its kind in the United States, is designated for “extraordinarily gifted singers between the ages of 25 and 40″ who have already appeared in featured solo roles at the Met. The award, given in honor of Beverly Sills, was established in 2006 by an endowment gift from Agnes Varis, a managing director on the Met board, and her husband, Karl Leichtman.

  1. I saw/heard his fantastic performance in Les Troyens. It's uncanny as to how much Hymel sounds like Jon Vickers. I look forward to hearing him in future performances.
