The Canadian Opera Company’s in-person Summer Opera Camps returns this July 2022.

The annual program provides youths and teens with the opportunity to make new friends, discover new interests, build self-confidence, and have plenty of fun.

The camp experience will offer a number of options and this year the COC introduces the Summer Opera Intensive. The one-week program, intended for advanced singers ages 18+, provides a framework for understanding and exploring a professional singing career, and is tuition-free for the 10 participants accepted through the audition and application process.

In a statement, Sarah Forestieri, Manager, Community Partnerships & Programs explained, “Building on the company’s commitment to developing young artists, the goal of this program is to seek and support emerging Canadian talent by providing artists with a barrier-free opportunity to learn about professional singing as a multi-faceted career.”
