“We founded our Studio Artist program in 2016 with a simple goal to discover and nurture talented performers,” said Tomer Zvulun, the Carl W. Knobloch General & Artistic Director, in an official statement issued by the company. “Singers expand their skills and knowledge with the training and opportunity they get here, and many have gone on to significant careers. This year, we continue our program with the confidence that these amazing young artists are the foundation of the future of opera.”

Lopreore joined The Atlanta Opera Studio Artists during the 2022-24 season and also appeared at the Santa Fe Opera.
