Le Nozze di Figaro
February 6 – March 7, 2018
Final Deadline: November 30, 2017
Now in its eleventh year, Lyric Opera Studio Weimar will present performances of Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro with chamber orchestra in our historic mainstage theatre in beautiful Weimar – Germany’s heart of history and culture.
Participants will sing a full role in performances accompanied by professional chamber orchestra, conducted by Maestro Olaf Storbeck, and with stage direction by LOSW General Director Damon Nestor Ploumis.
Our comprehensive opera training program is designed for emerging professional singers considering a career in Europe, with a focus on the German theater system. We offer intensive training in singing, movement, rehearsal process and role study, master classes, individual lessons and stagecraft instruction, as well as daily German language and diction coaching.
In addition to performing a role in a fully-staged opera in a production with chamber orchestra, students receive sessions on audition techniques and career management and have the opportunity to audition for German state and private agents.
Our faculty consists of European and North American professionals with active careers in leading theaters across Europe. Students benefit from our international faculty’s breadth of experience in workshops in career management, successful audition techniques, résumé building for the German theater system and receive a realistic vision of being a singer in Germany.
Since LOSW’s founding in 2008, many of our alumni have secured professional engagements in such theaters as the Deutsches Nationaltheater Weimar, Deutsche Oper Berlin, Semper Oper Dresden, Glyndebourne, English National Opera and other professional theaters throughout Germany.
