Hosted by Jessica Harper (soprano) & Jeremy Boulton (baritone), 'So You Think You Can Belto?' was created to empower emerging operatic practitioners across Australia and the world with access to the direct knowledge and relayed experiences of professionals.
It aims to help inform emerging artists by holding a mirror to the opera system so that artists can make their own individually-informed decisions about auditions, competitions, engagements, and more. You’ll hear everything from in-depth artist interviews, to long form panel discussions on topics concerning emerging artists.
