With grateful admiration we extend our warmest wishes to opera's verit' able Prima Donna, to the founder of Central Opera Service, to MRS. AUGUST BELMONT on the occasion of her 90th birthday. May the radiating source of her kindness and inspiration be with us for many years to come and bring to her some of the joy she so generously gives to others. It is especially fitting that this issue of the Bulletin, the "Awards for Singers" brochure, should be dedicated to Mrs. Belmont who has so persistently dedicated herself to encourage, aid and promote young American singers.

For the young professional singer the CENTRAL OPERA SERVICE listing of Opera Producing Companies in the United States and Canada will be of interest. The complete list is available from the New York office for $5.00. A supplement features lists A-E: A) Major Companies, B) Professional and Semi-Professional Companies, C) Summer Festivals with Opera, D) Opera Workshops with two or more annual productions, E) Touring Companies, indicating the number of performances and productions and type and length of seasons, as well as the name of the manager or artistic director. — 12 — Special Opportunities For Young Professional Singers The AFFILIATE ARTIST program offers the young professional performer an annual income of $6,500 in return for his services for an average of 56 days. The artists, required to have previous professional experience, are interviewed and auditioned, and if accepted into the program, are carefully matched with requests from colleges, uni- versities, community musical coordinating organizations, arts councils, etc. Among the various activities expected of the singers are recitals in concert halls or clubs, appear- ances with symphony orchestras and local opera companies, lecture demonstrations, participation in seminars and the like. No formal teaching is required. The time spent on this program is usually a total of about eight weeks in four to six visits and is coordinated to accommodate the artist as well as the presenting institution. Residency is not required and the artist is free to pursue his career at all other times. In preparation for his particular position each artist is required to attend a one-week training and briefing program. This is offered by Affiliate Artist, a non-profit organization with administrative offices at 155 West 68 St., Suite 25E, New York, N. Y. 10023. A number of music and opera departments at colleges and universities offer an "Artist- in-Residence" position. This is usually part of a full time teaching position and includes the obligation/privilege of performances. The SAN FRANCISCO OPERA GUILD TALENT BANK (Mrs. Alfred Crapsey, 2100 Green St., San Francisco, Cal. 94123) functions as a coordinating body between young professional singers and performing organizations in that area. Based on the same principle the UPPER MIDWEST REGION of CENTRAL OPERA SERVICE has opened a Regional Talent Bank in Minneapolis keeping files on young emerging talent (type of voice, repertory, experience, etc.) and matching it with requests from performing organizations within the region. Singers as well as performing groups, including workshops, orchestras, churches, clubs, etc., in Iowa, Manitoba, Minn., Neb., N.D., S.D., and Wise, who are interested in participating please contact Mrs. James Lafans, 6133 Washburn Ave. S., Minneapolis, Minn. 55410. Beginning in the Fall of 1969 the Juilliard School of Music will instituts the AMER- ICAN OPERA CENTER FOR ADVANCED TRAINING. Planned for the young professional who has finished his basic studies but requires stage experience the Center will accept about 25 singers between the ages of 20 and 35. They will be chosen by auditions in Dallas, Los Angeles and New York. The singers will be enrolled tuition-free and will receive up to $3500 towards living expenses. Opera productions will be presented at the Juilliard School theatre at Lincoln Center and may also be taken on tour. — An additional Study Center for Opera Productions will function as training ground for stage directors, conductors, designers, composers and librettists. Until September 1969 address Juilliard School of Music: 120 Claremont Ave., New York, N. Y. 10027, after that date: Lincoln Center, Broadway & 65 St., New York, N. Y. 10023. The SANTA FE OPERA offers an Apprentice Program paying AGMA minimum to the participants. They sing in the chorus and/or smaller solo parts while understudying leading roles which they are at times called upon to perform. They receive extensive coaching and lessons in stage movement and acting. — More recently, similar programs have been conducted under AGMA contracts by the LAKE GEORGE OPERA, the CHAUTAUQUA OPERA and the CENTRAL CITY OPERA companies, all perform- ing during the summer months. Two companies offer a year-round "Singer-in-Residence" program: THE SYRACUSE (N. Y.) SYMPHONY AND OPERA as well as the Seattle Opera Company. The programs are somewhat similar, offering professional singers a steady minimum income and a variety of work. In Syracuse they participate not only in the opera productions but are also featured soloists in a number of symphony concerts. The symphony organ- ization also assists in bookings for solo appearances in smaller communities and at colleges and universities for recitals or other engagements. The SEATTLE OPERA COMPANY engages its singers-in-residence for leading parts in the National Series (in English) and for smaller parts in the International Series, — the same operas in original language with international stars. The singers-in-residence also travel to surrouding communities offering ensemble or solo recitals, demonstration lectures, etc. Both programs offer as minimum salary about $6000 and allow time off for outside engagements. Both the Metropolitan Opera and the San Francisco Opera have junior companies employing the younger, not fully experienced, yet professional singer. The METRO-

•"—• 13 — POLITAN OPERA STUDIO with over 100 annual performances also offers extensive coaching and instruction in stage movement for a varied repertoire. Staged performances (in New York and on tour) feature mostly standard works, readings feature contemp- orary operas and song literature. The San Francisco Opera's WESTERN OPERA THEATRE is a junior touring company performing with chamber orchestra or two pianos, usually comprising a repertoire of four operas a season. It also plays over 100 performances. Advanced training centers affiliated with opera companies in Europe exist in London, Zurich and Geneva: LONDON OPERA CENTRE, gen. adm. Sir David Webster, 490 Commercial Rd., London, E.I. England. INTERNATIONAL OPERA CENTER, adm. dir. Henry Hollenstein, Opernhaus Zurich, 8001 Zurich, Switzerland. CENTRE LYRIQUE INTERNATIONAL, gen. dir., Dr. Herbert Graf, Grand Theatre, CH-1211 Geneva, Switzerland. THE HAMBURG OPERA offers an Exchange Program to students of Indiana University. For the STUDENT preparing for a career the following list of major opera workshops may be of assistance. This list does not represent a recommendation of certain schools, and omissions simply indicate that these opera workshops did not perform two full productions during the 1967-68 season. U.S. & CANADIAN OPERA WORKSHOPS AT COLLEGES OR UNIVERSITIES With Two or More Annual Productions The individual name following that of the college or university indicates the director of the opera workshop; the number in ( ) is the number of annual productions; there may be several performances of each production.

GUIDE to AMERICAN OPERATIC PREMIERES 1962 -1968

Frequent inquiries regarding American operatic premiers have prompted us to compile the following Guide. Covering the last seven years it lists 384 operas. It constitutes a supplement of Julius Mattfeld's Handbook of American Operatic Premieres published in 1962 by Information Service Inc., Detroit, Mich.

This Guide includes: a) World premieres in the United States — no symbol b) First performance in the United States — * c) North American premieres, other than U.S. — * * (this includes No. Am. premieres of foreign operas in Canada as well as world permieres of Canadian operas.) d) Operas by American composers premiered abroad — t

Operas are arranged alphabetically by titles in original language; where English trans- lations exist the translated titles are entered as cross reference. Following the number of acts is the name of the composer and his nationality. All operas marked * list the place and date of the world premiere in parenthesis. If this differs greatly from the time of the composition this date is also indicated. Notation of "first staged perf." refers to performances in the United States only unless specified. If not otherwise noted the premiere was in the original language and a staged production.

An INDEX BY COMPOSER may be found on page 31.
