From one young soprano making audition videos in a shelter in Kyiv while the war swept through Ukraine, to another using an international singing competition to showcase her talent, we meet emerging artists from four
leading young artist programmes across Europe. In this episode, we dip into each programme, from
Opera for Peace in Rome, to the
Rossini Opera Festival in Pesaro, on to
Palau de les Arts in Valencia and
Oper Frankfurt. As well as hearing from the artists about how their expectations
matched reality, we feature insight
s from experts such as Lawrence Brownlee, and learn how the programmes are nurturing and developing the next generation of talent.
