Meagan Miller, also a soprano, chose a tough nut in "Martern aller Arten" from "Die Entfuhrung," and chose to do it her own way, with moments of staccato phrasing that proved her agility, thrust and command of intonation.

Meagan Miller is an American soprano with an active international career in opera, recital and concert.

The event will begin at 7:30 p.m. with a performance by Ruth Ann Swenson, a soprano, and four young artists from the foundation's program: Jill Grove, Charles Castronovo, Meagan Miller and Dae San No.

Meagan Miller, a Met winner, made an impression in the world premiere of a new song cycle at the Horne foundation gala last January, and by all accounts she's continued both her strong singing and her commitment to new music in the months since.

Meagan Miller, soprano, will perform songs by Strauss, Poulenc, Debussy and Libby Larsen, with piano accompaniment.

The cast includes Joanna Mongiardo, who made her Avery Fisher debut last year with this group in the same operetta, as Adele, and Meagan Miller, an able and rising young soprano, as Rosalinde.

Meagan Miller was a commanding presence, but other songs, like a humorous Schumann duet, brought out more vocal color.
