KU's Voice & Opera program features prominent faculty and numerous performing opportunities. The KU Opera produces two fully staged operas each year. In addition, the voice and opera division collaborates each spring to produce a third opera or a major musical. Students are encouraged to audition for all plays and musicals; and take theatre and audition classes. Numerous choral activities are also available.
The spring opera workshop provides stage instruction and produces a series of scene recitals. Additionally, a quartet of graduate students is selected annually for prestigious apprenticeships with the Kansas City Lyric Opera through which they receive training and opportunities to fill performance comprimario roles.
