Four Young Artists from Oper Frankfurt’s Opera Studio share their stories – from their first auditions in front of the Intendant Bernd Loebe, and on to negotiating their way through the early months of the programme and taking on major roles in mainstage productions. Along the way they explore how to filter the very best advice from experts, discover the necessity of dealing with the inner critic, and learn to listen to and trust their own unique voice. We also hear insights from the other side of the table, with Thomas Stollberger who runs Opera Studio sharing his thoughts on finding the right balance to support and nurture the next generation of young artists.
