New York, NY -
Following this afternoon’s highly competitive semi-final competition,
nine young singers will advance to the final phase of the Metropolitan
Opera’s 2014 National Council Auditions, America’s
most prestigious vocal competition. The selected finalists, chosen by a
panel of experts from the classical music industry, will compete on the
Met stage on Sunday, March 30 at the Grand Finals Concert, with winners
receiving individual cash prizes of $15,000 and the prestigious—and potentially career-launching—title of National Council Auditions Winner. The Grand Finals Concert begins at 3 p.m. and will feature Marco Armiliato conducting
the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra as each finalist performs two arias in
contrasting styles. The concert will be hosted by tenor Lawrence Brownlee, a former National Council winner currently at the Met rehearsing for Bellini’s I Puritani
