Described by Le Devoir as “an excellent actress with impeccable projection and style,” French soprano Juliette Tacchino is garnering acclaim for her artistry and stage presence. She recently won the Special Jury Prize at the 2024 Sumi Jo International Singing Competition and the 2024 French Riviera Masters Competition at the Opéra de Nice Côte d'Azur.

This season, she performs with David Stern’s Opéra Fuoco Company in Paris, collaborating with Laurent Naouri and Elsa Rooke on Massenet opera scenes, presenting a recital at the Château d’Écouen, and appearing as the soprano soloist in Boyce's Solomon at the Opéra de Massy. She also makes her role debut as Susanna in Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro with the Curtis Opera Theater in Philadelphia, conducted by Nicholas McGegan, and will join Sumi Jo on her tour of China and South Korea this 2025 Summer.

Born into a musical family, Juliette began her vocal journey as a child in the Children's Choir of the Opéra de Nice. She later graduated from the pre-college program at the Nice Conservatory before earning her bachelor's degree from the University of Montréal. During her studies, she performed the roles of Ilia (Idomeneo), Pauline (La Vie Parisienne), Phani (Les Indes Galantes), as well as roles in The Fairy Queen and a new work by Canadian composer Ana Sokolović. She was awarded First Prize at the Opéra Bouffe de Québec Competition and is a recipient of the Louise Roy Scholarship, the Azrieli Foundation, and the Cercle Richard Wagner. Additionally, she performed a program of Mozart concert arias with the Monte-Carlo Chamber Music Orchestra.

Currently finishing her master’s degree at the prestigious Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia under the tutelage of Joan Patenaude-Yarnell, Juliette was highlighted in a New York Times feature, offering an insightful perspective on her artistic development.

She has performed Mélisande (Pelléas et Mélisande) and Sophie (Der Rosenkavalier) opera scenes under the baton of Yannick Nézet-Séguin with the Curtis Symphony Orchestra and her operatic repertoire at Curtis includes Ginevra (Ariodante), Thérèse (Les Mamelles de Tirésias), Vixen (Cunning Little Vixen), a featured soloist role in a staged production of Handel’s L’Allegro, il Penseroso, ed il Moderato. 

In concert, she has appeared as the soprano soloist in Mozart’s Requiem, Mahler’s Symphony No. 4, Handel’s Dixit Dominus and Dettingen Te Deum, and Vivier’s Lonely Child. Juliette’s upcoming engagements include performances at the Opéra de Nice, Istanbul State Opera, and the Royal Opera House of Muscat in Oman.
