The Opera Studio Melbourne supports and facilitates development for highly trained aspiring operatic artists through performance. 

We encourage exploration of potential in rehearsal, concert and theatrical contexts, and before an audience, with a view to maximising the employment potential of young singers.

By simulating a repertory company, with extra training, attention and preparation, we provide an invaluable opportunity for a singer to learn and to practice essential skills to immerse fully in the craft of story-telling through singing, with the advice and guidance of industry professionals.

Experience, in intensive rehearsal and performance, provides the means for refining skills and defining an artistic personality, crucial for a career in Opera in the 21st century.  Our young artists improve their performance skills by testing, practising and expanding singing, acting, moving, and relating experience with professionals and peers in an intense (four days a week) program.

We aim to provide experiences that are both challenging and inspirational, and simulate real pressures and working conditions. In order to perpetuate the relevance and possibilities for Opera and employment into the future, our program is a mixture of the traditional and the daring.
