Audition Information

You will be notified by the middle of October 2024 if you have been granted a live or video audition. Live auditions will be held on November 21–23, 2024 at Ripley-Grier Studios, 520 8th Ave, New York, NY 10018. For a live audition you will be asked to prepare four (4) opera or operetta arias in a variety of styles and at least three different languages, including English and Italian.
