Pacific Opera Auditions

2021

2020 has been a difficult year all round, but Pacific opera has maintained a deep commitment to continuing to mentor and develop young singers.

We invite young singers across Australia to apply for our 2021 program, which will be led by esteemed Co-Artistic Directors, Peter Coleman-Wright AO and Cheryl Barker AO.

​

Audition Requirements

​

Singers will be asked to present two operatic arias of their own choice, one of which will be heard by the panel. The second aria may be requested, or part thereof, if scheduling permits. 

​

Singers are required to submit their CV and repertoire list via email to Auditions Manager, Anne Chivas at auditions@pacificopera.com.au, and to pay their $50 application fee, no later than Friday the 30th of October. Late or incomplete applications cannot be accepted.

​

Please note, the audition venue does not have a space suitable for warming up. Singers are advised to come to their audition having warmed up at home.
