We invite you to join the Rumbold Vocal Prize finalists at their Masterclass with the incredible Judith Forst, this year’s Master Clinician, and the Rumbold Vocal Prize Concert where our finalists will perform a variety of songs before the judges.

Made possible by the generous support of Grace and Arnold Rumbold, the Rumbold Vocal Prize aims to cultivate and showcase emerging opera talent from across Canada. Selected finalists will come to Edmonton for a week full of artistic growth and mentorship. Under the guidance of a team of opera professionals—including performers, directors, head coaches, and more—the finalists will refine their craft in preparation for the Vocal Prize Concert.

Join us on November 6, 2024, for the Masterclass, where you can witness the finalists receive live feedback and coaching, offering a unique glimpse into the preparation and dedication of opera performers.

Then, on November 8, 2024, be captivated by the Vocal Prize Concert, where the finalists will showcase their talents as soloists and in group performances. A distinguished panel of judges will crown the winner of the Vocal Prize Concert, an accolade that marks a significant milestone in the career of these outstanding emerging professional opera singers.
