BOLOGNA INTERNATIONAL OPERA ACADEMY CYPRUS
17-23 November 2024
BIOA Cyprus is a boutique-style training and career development program that offers the following: daily master classes; one-on-one coaching from world-renowned opera singers, voice teachers, opera directors and coaches; and the opportunity to be immersed in the surroundings of Papohos. BIOA’s curriculum is carefully designed to build the proficiency and discipline that will facilitate success for those seeking a professional singing career, as well as exposing participants to professional-level opera auditions early in their careers.
BIOA Cyprus Classic focuses on standard operatic repertoire with
an emphasis on the works of Italian composers. Voice coaching of standard arias
with world-renowned operatic masters provides singers with a distinct advantage
in the fiercely competitive audition process.
The most distinguished element of the Bologna International Opera
Academy Cyprus is that singers have the opportunity to be heard by and signed
with opera industry professionals (numerous artists from BIOA received
professional contracts with opera houses and agencies). This unparalleled
opportunity, paired with performing in Bologna, greatly benefit every serious
singer to complete their training and advance their professional development.
