High School Opera Singers Intensive
9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade students welcome
The Met Opera Guild Community Engagement department is proud to offer the High School Opera Singers Intensive, a program designed to inform and inspire developing young singers as they explore options for college or conservatory study and beyond. The program is available to students in grades 9-12.
In this four-day intensive, students participate in a variety of workshops and training sessions led by guest teachers and Met Opera Guild staff, including daily master classes, song interpretation, audition tips and technique, a Backstage Tour of the Met Opera house, and a chat with a Met Opera artist.
Participants also receive one ticket to a performance at the Met Opera House, with the option to purchase a second ticket for a parent at a discounted rate.
Admission is by application only. Required materials include application form, an audio/video submission of two selections, letter of recommendation from a teacher or coach, and an application fee of $25. Applications will become available on October 2nd and will be due no later than December 1st. Accepted applicants will be notified by the end of business on December 15th. The 2018 High School Opera Singers Intensive will take place at the Metropolitan Opera Guild's New York facility from February 20-23.
