Our Vision

Established in 2007, Opera Singers Initiative is a dynamic, collaborative arts organization that supports emerging talent in classical music and opera while introducing the public to outstanding emerging performers. We support emerging classical performers by offering mentoring, performance opportunities, career development and funding for careers in classical music.

Opera Singers Initiative focuses on providing best practices and supporting emerging talent through a combination of premiere nonprofit and business practices. On a broader scope, Opera Singers Initiative looks to build an arts organization that establishes an enduring foundation of services and support to emerging classical talent.

Our Talent

Opera Singers Initiative supports emerging professional opera singers through an innovative 12 month training program teaching entrepreneurship in opera. Each November, Opera Singers Initiative selects 10 opera singers after a rigorous audition process. These 10 singers are then offered one-on-one monthly mentoring with key classical, arts and business professionals, a full season of performance opportunities, career development and funding to pursue their careers in classical music. 

Our Mission

To provide mentoring, educational services and financial support to emerging classical talent while increasing the public's interest in opera and classical music.
