    SALZBURG FESTIVAL 20 July – 31 August 2019 Press Release of the Salzburg Festival Young Singers Project 2019 Supported by the Kühne Foundation photo: SF/Anne Zeuner (SF, 2 July 2019) “The lucky hand – or rather, lucky ear – of Evamaria Wieser, the director of the Young Singers Project, is demonstrated by the fact that the participants in the Young Singers Project achieve excellent results at competitions all over the world and are engaged by the best opera houses,” says Festival President Helga Rabl-Stadler. “This year, a total of 13 participants of the Young Singers Project will appear on the programme of the Salzburg Festival. Furthermore, I am particularly pleased that Joel Prieto, a 2008 YSP participant, will sing the title role in Orphée aux enfers.” With the Young Singers Project, the Salzburg Festival has created a high-carat platform for the support of young vocalists, which looks back upon eleven years of successful history in 2019. Since 2008, 157 young vocalists from 41 countries have participated in the Young Singers Project. This year, 13 young singers from eleven nations will take part. They are from Canada, Spain, the UK, France, Russia, Poland, the USA, Ukraine, Ireland and, for the first time, from Mexico and New Zealand. 1 SALZBURG FESTIVAL 20 July – 31 August 2019 The singers are chosen at international auditions. As part of their fellowship, they have the opportunity to work with Festival artists. Tuition includes not only music lessons and repertoire expansion, but also stage rehearsals, language coaching and lied interpretation. Its master classes and strong practical orientation make YSP an international model for young artist programmes.
