Opera Offstage explores the grey area between music school and a professional career. We’re here to discuss those important skills and topics that leave you wondering, “Wait, how the heck did I not learn about this earlier?” From audition season and recitals to fitness and finances, join us as we talk, joke, and complain about everything it takes to be a classical musician in a modern world.

In part two of our Issues in Opera episode on YAPs, we are joined by Cynthia López Pérez, co-founder of Latina Women in Opera, and Renee Namakau Ombaba, founder of Black Women in Opera to discuss the problematic ways many Young Artist Pograms treat young singers.
From treating musicans as a commodity to enforcing application and tuition fees to being behind on issues of diversity and engaging in tokenism, Young Artist Programs require a lot of change, and our guests have some brilliant ideas about what needs to happen in order for opera to truly thrive.
