Selected artists-in-residence will be performing shortened versions of each opera in inner city schools, hospitals, nursing homes, among other locations. Many of the artists-in-residence will be chosen to participate in nine to twelve hours of master classes. Each singer participating in the master classes will perform in the final concert at Symphony Space.
