Audition Repertoire

Audition Selections*

Please list five operatic arias (under five minutes each). The list must include one aria in English and two in other languages. The repertoire list also must include an aria by Mozart or Handel and must include a 20th century aria (not Puccini or Strauss for this requirement). You may include a selection written in your native language that is not operatic, e.g., folk song, musical theater song. Note: one aria could represent more than one of the requirements, i.e., the 20th century required aria could also be your aria in English; the Mozart aria will fulfill one of your foreign language requirements.

* Singers-please note: Audition repertoire may be updated in your application until 10 days before your preliminary audition date. No repertoire changes will be permitted at the audition. Updated repertoire must still conform to audition requirements listed above. Number of selections required: 5.
