NOTE: We regret that due to the dangerous storm conditions forecast for the central USA, we are forced to cancel our January 22-25 auditions in Norman, Fort Worth, Houston and Kansas City. Please submit video links as your audition directly to auditions@opera.org at your earliest convenience.
Once your application is accepted, your live audition will be scheduled. An accompanist will be provided for the in-person audition. Bring a résumé and rep list. As part of your application, you may upload one selection as a prelude to your live audition.
