The Los Angeles Master Chorale family is grieving the heartbreaking loss of Matthew Jordan Miles. Matt joined the tenor section of the Chorale in 2016 and has been an integral part of the ensemble ever since. He sang in countless unforgettable performances at Walt Disney Concert Hall with the Master Chorale under Grant Gershon, Jenny Wong and Eric Whitacre; and Matt also sang in many Los Angeles Philharmonic concerts under the batons of Gustavo Dudamel, Esa-Pekka Salonen, Susanna Mälkkii and many other prominent conductors.
Matt was a brilliant performing artist as both a singer and an up-and-coming conductor. He was also an arts leader in Los Angeles, helping to sustain several organizations as a development/advancement officer, including Classical California, the LA Phil, and the LA Opera. Additionally he was a board member of the Pacific Opera Project.
Matt leaves behind his wife, Alana, and three young children Michael, Olivia and Joshua. In this difficult time, A GoFundMe has been created for Matt’s family. If you are able, please consider making a contribution or sharing the fundraiser with others.
