Testimonial

The audition workshop hosted by Boston Singers' Resource was just what I needed! As someone who does opera on the side, this workshop was perfect to help me understand what the different sects of the industry (musical theater vs. opera vs. chorale etc) were looking for in an auditionee. I also suffer from stage freight and tend to clam up at auditions. The panelists were not only extremely knowledgeable, but extremely down-to-earth and approachable so I was comfortable enough to ask them for tips and tricks regarding audition nerves. I was nervous to attend this workshop since I am not as experienced as other fellow singers, but there was no reason to be nervous! I'm so glad I was able to be a part of this workshop and I look forward to more BSR educational opportunities. Thanks to BSR and the panelists for a fantastic workshop!

Testimonial

The Audition Workshop was such a unique and invaluable experience to participate in. Being a young singer, I am frequently working the audition circuit where you often don't hear any feedback. Auditions are a craft of their own, and to be able to practice that craft in front of such an accomplished panel was very helpful. Their focus was individualized, professional, and just spot on. They were able to talk about everything from your audition materials (headshot, resume, etc.) to the repertoire pieces you were offering. The environment was encouraging and warm. The experience to also sing in front of other singers added an element of performance practice that is crucial to your development as a young performer. I hope to see these workshops continue and grow, the Boston community certainly needs this type of mentorship! —Kristin Fahning, soprano
