Opera Baltimore holds auditions periodically for principal, comprimario, chorus, and cover roles, often in collaboration with our artistic partner, OperaDelaware. Auditions are scheduled on an invitation-only basis, and due to our limited staff capacity we are not able to accept or review unsolicited materials. Managed and unmanaged singers interested in working with Opera Baltimore are encouraged to watch our website and social media channels for official audition announcements.
About working with Opera Baltimore:
OB presents an array of opera performances each season including fully staged productions, operas in concert and highlight concerts, as well as education and outreach events. Full productions are presented at the beautifully appointed Stephens Hall at Towson University. Concert operas and highlights concerts are presented with piano accompaniment in our jewel-box theater inside the gilded Garrett-Jacobs Mansion which seats 200 guests. We regularly sell out our performances to enthusiastic, vibrant audiences. Our audiences are tremendously appreciative and enjoy seeing the singers up close.
The complete time commitment for a full production is generally 4 weeks, and for a concert opera 8-12 days.
All performers are paid. Opera Baltimore is a non-AGMA company.
