The Armenian American soprano, Tatev Baroyan joined the Metropolitan Opera in the 24-25 season for the Met’s premiere of Golijov’s Ainadamar and made her European debut at the Salzburger Landestheater, creating the role of Iolante in a unique combination of Tchaikovsky's
Iolante and Nutcracker, crafted into an opera-ballet fantasy. She has been invited back in 2026 to sing the role of Tatiana in Tchaikovsky’s Eugene Onegin after her debut of the role at the Romanian National Opera House. Tatev will join the Bregenzer Festspiele in the summer of 2026 to perform the leading soprano role in Janáček’s profound comedy The Excursions of Mr. Brouček.
Born in Yerevan, Armenia, soprano Tatev Baroyan began her musical journey at Yerevan’s Tchaikovsky Specialized Music School and furthered vocal studies at the Komitas State Conservatory.

Tatev joined the New York City Opera and to date has performed with the company in productions of La Traviata, La Boheme, Barbiere di Siviglia and for the world premiere of Ricky Ian Gordon’s The Garden of the Finzi Contini. She has appeared as well in various concerts including a celebration commemorating the centennial of Giacomo Puccini’s death in which she sang excerpts from the composer’s La rondine, Turandot and Suor Angelica. She had her debut with the Buffalo Symphony at ArtPark in Saratoga, NY in this same program in July 2024. Throughout the year Tatev performs in solo and joint recitals and concerts in the USA and in Armenia.

"Tatev Baroyan from Armenia possesses a flawless, clear, and naturally resonant soprano voice, who brought all her qualities to her rendition of "Un bel di vedremo" from Puccini's Madama Butterfly . With subtle gestures and a smooth, well-focused, free voice, she sang movingly and with apparent ease and simplicity. Both the audience and the media jury chose her as the winner."
"Recognize the accomplished art of Tatev Baroyan , crowned by the public and by the international press jury. The Armenian soprano swims in Puccini like a fish in water: softness in the attacks, satiny timbre, flexibility of line despite the tensions of the writing, and just the right graduation of emotions in the conduct of the story."
"Soprano Tatev Baroyan delivered a heart-wrenching, devotional rapture of “Senza Mamma” from Suor Angelica. Baroyan’s voice, filled with sorrow and longing, drew the audience into Angelica’s tragic world. Her emotional depth and vocal control set a poignant tone for the night."
"...The rejoicing, warm quality of her voice worked well with the venue as her series of calls reverberated with a lovely ease."
"... her brisk, excited phrases lifted her from the tumult of the middle section as she worked up to a soaring conclusion."
