We welcome you to browse through these wonderful images of our lively competition, semi-finals, finals and Award Program. Every year, our judges select their favorite singers as fine examples of the upcoming opera stars of the future. We also would like to congratulate each and every contestant for their hard work and dedication, which brought them to us. Bravissimi!
Also to be thanked are our tireless judges and accompanists for their talent and expertise in the field.
Last but not least, we could not offer our competition without the collective efforts of our fantastic board of directors, generous benefactors and volunteers. Our singers so appreciate this experience and opportunity.
