The Principal Artist Program provides advanced college and emerging professional singers with the opportunity to perform featured roles in a fully staged opera with orchestra while exploring and refining Italian language and style skills.

There will be six featured singers: Rocio Valle, soprano (Mexico), Kahli Dalbow, soprano (Utah), Amelia Burshe, soprano (Boston), Hilary Law, mezzo-soprano (Boston), Eric Taylor, tenor (Utah), Kathryn Schwaar, soprano (Utah). These singers are part of the Principal Artist Program this summer and they will be studying specific opera roles with experienced and talented vocal coaches. They will also sing in Mozart’s “Le Nozze di Figaro” and compete in the Death by Aria vocal competition. World-famous singers Deborah Voigt, Wendy Bryn Harmer and Anthony Laciura have trained and mentored each singer.

This concert will include highlights from operas by Mozart, Puccini, Donizetti, Floyd and more. A small chamber ensemble will be featured with pianist Michael Leavitt and conductor Nicolas Giusti.
