Competition Guidelines & Rules

Judging will be conducted by voice faculty from music schools throughout the country.

• Singers will come prepared with 3 contrasting selections (art songs or arias) of their choice, preferably one in a language other than English, at a level appropriate to your vocal development. At least one song must be in English.
• One of the selections may be a musical theater selection. Please keep in mind that the emphasis of this competition is classical singing. Choose repertoire appropriately.
• Selections must be performed with piano accompaniment only. No other accompanying instruments are allowed.

• Singers must bring a list, preferably word processed, with the singer's name and the titles and composers of the three selections.
