The Riverside Opera Company is excited to announce auditions on Sunday, October 12th, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM in Studio 4G at Playwrights' Downtown Studios, located at 440 Lafayette Street, New York, NY.
Each singer will be given a cherished 5-minute time slot to shine, performing an aria or arias selected by the judges from the submitted repertoire list.
Audition winners will have the incredible opportunity to sing with a professional opera orchestra on November 8, 2025, and May 23, 2026, an esteemed group that has graced Carnegie Hall, along with a $200-$ 300 stipend (one rehearsal with the orchestra). There will also be numerous other performance opportunities throughout 2026 (no rehearsal), so you may potentially earn $1,200-$1,500.
A one-time, non-refundable application fee of $50 covers the essential production costs, including studio rental, a pianist, and the management of audition times.
