Mark Milhofer

Mark Milhofer is an English operatic tenor, who has performed at major international opera houses, beginning his career in Italy.

[1] He appeared as Giannetto in Rossini's La gazza ladra with the British Youth Opera, and was then invited to study with Renata Scotto and Leyla Gencer in Italy.

He performed in 20th-century operas such as Britten's Billy Budd, The Turn of the Screw and as the Madwoman in his Curlew River, and as the Magician in Menotti's The Consul.

[3] In 2017, he appeared in a production of Monteverdi's L’incoronazione di Poppea for the reopening of the Staatsoper Unter den Linden in Berlin,[4] staged by Eva Höckmayr and conducted by Diego Fasolis.

A critic called his performance the surprise of the evening, and noted his unity of voice and character in comic and tragic action, dressed as a parody of the butler Riff Raff in The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
