City: Lviv (Ukraine)

Tchaikovsky str.7 Lviv – Ukraine

Sponsored by :  Lviv Philhamonic Society

Date: 01 > 06 September 2021

Deadline : 31 July 2021

ArteinCanto Project is a real and accessible opportunity for the opera singers to get and improve the experience of collaboration with the Symphony orchestra, and create a professional artistic portfolio, that is indispensable to present and promote your talent and skills.

KLK Symphony Orchestra offers a possibility to perform and professionally audio and video record the opera repertoire in life concerts, that will take place in Philharmonic Concert Hall in Lviv (Ukraine).

The artistic direction reserves the right to decide directly during the rehearsals which arias will be performed and recorded in one of the concerts opened for the public, and which ones – without access for public. In both options the rehearsal time, hall, conditions, artistic staff and participation fee are the same.

The schedule provides the preparative lesson with the piano, rehearsals with the orchestra, general rehearsal and the concert/live recording.

Participants can choose from one to maximum four arias to perform from the list indicated on the KLKnewmusic website. If the aria is not present in the list the singer should contact us to discuss the possibility to get the orchestral parts or can provide the orchestral parts himself ahead.

The participants should send the videos of the arias sung with piano or other accompaniment (home video is enough) and will be communicated by artistic staff which arias are accepted to be performed in the concert/recording.

The project will be located in Lviv Philharmonia in cooperation with the KLK Symphony Orchestra under the guidance of italian conductor and composer Ferdinando Nazzaro.
