It is very exciting to announce that I have been selected as a semi-finalist in this prestigious national competition! The materials I submitted were for the Professional (most competitive category) Opera division were: Caro Nome, Verdi's Rigoletto, with Utah Festival Opera & Musical Theatre Orchestra Kiss Me Again, Mlle. Modiste, Victor Herbert Now that the competition has been narrowed down to the following semi-finalists, now there is another round of judging that happens, and finalists/top prize winners will be announced after that round. Cheers! Wish me luck! (It is so weird to not have to "do" anything for this competition, since it is judged off of the same recordings...you just have to wait! I like it! Haha) I DO wish, ( looking back at my application) that I had included the "BELL SONG" recording from my Carnegie Hall performance...but oh well! Here is the official announcement from The American Prize's blog: ( I copied and pasted the text-- But you may go to the blog to see the other lists in the other categories of semi-finalists.) The names that I have bolded are friends/ women that I have met before along the way. Lovely ladies, all, I wish them the best! : ) ---------------------------------------------------- VOCAL semi-finalists, 2015 (WOMEN—OPERA: professional division) announced The American Prize is pleased to announce SEMI-FINALIST women in opera for 2015 in the professional division.
