Member of the Opéra National du Rhin studio for the 2023-2024 season, French tenor Jean Miannay played the role of Flavio (Norma) on the main stage.
He returns to the Opéra de Lausanne this season, singing the roles of Rodolphe (Guillaume Tell) and Azincourt (Fortunio).

He went on to win prizes at the Clermont-Ferrand Competition, the Kattenburg Competition and the 2nd Vienna International Music Competition.

In 2018, he made his stage debut at the Opéra de Lausanne, where he has since performed regularly as Nemorino (L'Elisir d'amore), Ferrando (Cosi fan tutte) and Monsieur Triquet (Eugen Oneguin).

He made his French debut as Beppe (Pagliacci) at the Massy, Avignon and Clermont-Ferrand operas.

In 2020, he appeared for the first time at the Chorégies d'Orange during the "Nuit Magique". He returned the following three years, for the Emerging Stage recital, the role of Isepo (La Gioconda) and that of Remendado (Carmen).

In 2022, he made his German debut as Orpheus (Orpheus in der Unterwelt) at the Theater Magdeburg.
