Metropolitan Opera Laffont Competition
The Metropolitan Opera Competition is designed to discover promising young opera singers and assist in the development of their careers. It has been sponsored by the Metropolitan Opera National Council since 1954, including hundreds of volunteers from across the US, Canada, and Mexico. Some of today’s greatest singers got their start in the auditions, including Renée Fleming, Anthony Roth Costanzo, Eric Owens and Nadine Sierra.
One of San Diego District’s winners last November won not only the regional competition but was one of only six National Winners in April in NYC—mezzo Sarah Saturnino, our first National Winner ever!
Please join us for the 2024-2025 San Diego District Auditions.
Admission is free. A $20 donation is suggested and greatly appreciated. Donations can be made in-person at the event or online here.
