Programs

Vocal Competition

Our programs offer unique opportunities for learning, inspiration, and personal growth. From Opera in the Schools, which introduces students to the wonders of opera, to Opera in the Park, a beloved community event, we make opera accessible to everyone. Our Annual Vocal Competition showcases rising talent, while lectures and workshops provide deeper insight into music, history, and production. Zarzuela celebrates the richness of Spanish musical theater, expanding cultural appreciation.
