2010 Standard Repertoire Project AUDITION APPLICATION

DELL’ARTE OPERA ENSEMBLE’S primary mission is to nurture emerging artists in their pursuit of operatic careers. You must have completed an undergraduate degree (not necessarily in music) to participate in DELL’ARTE’s Summer Readings Project. While there is no upper age limit, DELL’ARTE participants tend to be 21-40 and are poised to launch, or have already begun, operatic careers.

After you complete this form, you will need to send a processing fee of $25 to our offices (check or money order only, please), along with your headshot and resume (the fee also includes a provided pianist for the audition). You will be given a reference number to put in the memo line of your check. If we choose not to hear you in a live audition, we will return your application fee via US Mail.

Please read the full SRP information page before beginning

Applications must be received by Monday, February 1, 2010
