Opera Birmingham Competition!

Opera Birmingham Vocal Competition

THE 32ND ANNUAL OPERA BIRMINGHAM VOCAL COMPETITION

The annual Opera Birmingham Vocal Competition begins its 32nd year in Birmingham on May 22 & 23, 2010. The competition was founded in 1978 by W. Cassell Stewart to reward young singers with exceptional talent and motivation with both cash awards and future performance consideration. Prizes range from $3,500 for first prize to $1,000 for fifth prize, with an additional “audience favorite” award of $1,000.

Bray competed in this competition today, and has been moved on to the finals tomorrow! Over 20 singers competed, and only 5 are chosen to compete in the finals! They have a formal dinner/recital at 6pm, and then the winner is announced! We shall update after the results tomorrow...
