Please visit https://www.roh.org.uk/about/jette-parker-young-artists-programme/auditions for full information on the application and auditions process. 

After the initial application on YAP Tracker, shortlisted candidates will be asked to prepare and record a concept presentation for the opera, Arminio, to be submitted by 21st April 2022. Due to a tight turn around between being notified of being a shortlisted candidate on the 1st April, and the deadline on the 21st April, you may wish to begin to prepare this now. If you have any questions on the repertoire/opera, please contact jpyapassistant@roh.org.uk

Equal opportunities monitoring

The Royal Opera House is required under the terms of its funding from the Arts Council of England (ACE) to keep records of, and monitor, the diversity of its workforce. You are therefore asked to complete the following questions. This information is completely confidential and used only for statistical purposes. It is not part of the selection process and will be separated from the application before it is considered by the selection/audition panel.
PLEASE NOTE: You must enter your date of birth in DD/MM/YYYY format.
In accordance with the Equality Act 2010, a disability is a physical or mental impairment which has a substantial and long term adverse effect on your ability to carry out normal day to day activities and you think might disadvantage you in obtaining or keeping employment for which otherwise you would be suitable, even though you might have overcome any such disability.
Please check through your application carefully to ensure that all required elements are complete. Note that the panel will not see your answers to the Equal Opportunities monitoring form, but we do require it to be completed as part of your application. It is your own responsibility to ensure that your application is complete and to check the application status regularly to verify that all elements have been submitted before the deadline. A completed application, including two references, must be received by the deadline or the application will be rejected. The Programme will not chase missing elements of an application.
