Voice and Opera
Voice students at the Cali School of Music develop the technical, musical, and expressive skills needed for a life in music. Through private study, diction, vocal literature, acting, stagecraft, pedagogy, masterclasses, and close work with Cali faculty, students build a strong foundation as confident and thoughtful singers.
Students perform a wide range of repertoire, from early music to contemporary works, through solo recitals, choral ensembles, opera scenes, and fully staged opera productions. In a rigorous and supportive environment, singers grow as versatile performers with strong technique, artistic curiosity, and expressive range.
World-Class Voice Training, Rooted in Student Success

With distinguished faculty artists, world-renowned artists in residence, weekly private sessions with vocal coaches, and performance opportunities in vocal performance and opera, students develop in a supportive environment that encourages confidence, creativity, and success on stage and beyond.
