Read Profile

Set in the Village of Haliburton in the beautiful surroundings of the Haliburton Highlands, Highlands Opera Studio provides advanced operatic training to a select group of talented emerging professionals with the main objective of providing singers with the necessary skills to embark on a career in opera. Established opera professionals (international artist agents, vocal coaches, general directors of professional opera companies, etc.) are invited to interact with and advise program participants during the intensive session, resulting in new connections, often leading to employment and/or artist representation (national and international). Activities also include 16-18 live public events/performances: multiple performances of 2-3 fully staged operas, 3 public masterclasses, 4-5 concerts, and free community events.
