Recordings

Please submit three arias or art songs of a contrasting nature. One selection should be in French, one selection should be in Italian, and one should be a selection of your choosing. Of the three selections, at least two must be recorded with both video and audio. Audition selections may be submitted with live or pre-recorded accompaniment. If using pre-recorded accompaniment, you may record with headphones and then edit the voice and piano tracks together. Please do not submit any recordings without either piano or orchestra accompaniment. You may submit videos from performances, recitals, or concerts, as long as you can be seen clearly. Videos should show as much of your body as possible so we can clearly see your acting choices.
