Voice Audition Information

 

 

Opera (MM & PS)

 

All applicants in Opera are required to submit a screening recording with application material by Wednesday, December 12, 2018.

 

Screening Repertoire

 

The three repertoire selections for screening should include accompaniment and should show contrast in musical styles and tempos. Please make certain the recording is of good quality, as the granting of a live audition will depend upon this.

 

Applicants will be notified of decisions regarding live auditions by mid-January.

 

 

 

Live Audition Repertoire 

 

Vocalists who audition live will be asked to perform from memory:

 

  • Up to five contrasting arias from the standard operatic repertoire

 

 

 

Though an accompanist is provided, opera applicants may supply their own accompanist if they prefer. A short test of musical theory and sight singing may be asked of the applicants in the final round of auditions.
