Aspiring opera singers between the ages of 20 and 30 will compete for a chance to advance to the Upper Midwest Region of the Metropolitan Opera Eric and Dominique Laffont Competition. All events are free and open to the public.
We hope to see you in Grand Forks this season!
The Met’s Laffont Competition—previously known as the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions—is designed to discover promising young opera singers and assist in the development of their careers and is sponsored by hundreds of donors and volunteers from across North and South America. Some of today’s greatest singers got their starts in the competition, including Jamie Barton, Stephanie Blythe, Lawrence Brownlee, Anthony Roth Costanzo, Emily D’Angelo, Michael Fabiano, Renée Fleming, Susan Graham, Ryan Speedo Green, Lisette Oropesa, Eric Owens, and Nadine Sierra.
