Juan Tello

Tenor Juan Carlos Tello, originally from Mexico City, has built a distinguished artistic career that combines solid academic training with an active presence on the national and international operatic scene.

He began his studies at the Conservatorio Nacional de Música in Mexico City, where he discovered his passion for opera and laid the foundations of his vocal technique. He continued his training with private teachers Carlos Aransay (voice) and Andrés Sarre (coaching and repertoire).

Juan Carlos broadened his artistic horizons by earning a Master’s degree in Music from the State University of New York, where he studied with Thomas Goodheart. During his time in the U.S., he performed as Rinuccio in Gianni Schicchi, Alfredo in Die Fledermaus, and as a soloist in Carmina Burana.

Internationally, he has appeared as Tamino in The Magic Flute (Miami Music Festival), Oronte in Alcina (Chicago Summer Opera), San Giovanni in La Resurrezione (Périgord Noir Festival), and Mr. Pete in Jodi Goble’s contemporary opera (Savannah Voice Festival). He has also participated in the Festival de Música de Cáceres and Lyric Opera Studio Weimar.

Professionally, he has performed with the Orquesta Sinfónica del Estado de México in Il Signor Bruschino and La Scala di Seta. In the U.S., he has sung with Tri Cities Opera in The Magic Flute (Tamino cover), Rigoletto (Borsa), Rothstein’s All is Calm (ensemble), and Barnes’ Papagayo (title role).

Soon, Juan Carlos will begin an Artist Diploma at the Schwob School of Music in Columbus, Georgia, further consolidating his artistic training and international profile.
