Young artists opera program celebrates the 5th anniversary!

“SCHOOL’S DIRECTOR”

“There is a certain gap between the institute of higher education and a prestigious stage which you can overcome only in years or even decades. But now theatres need young singers whose looks and age correspond to audience’s idea of, for example, Romeo and Juliet. And they cannot wait for too long. At The Bolshoi we try to concentrate our pedagogical and financial efforts on preparing young talented artists for working days at theatre. This is like a little factory that produces something precious and exclusive. And young artists should be first of all captivated with creativity and the amount of interesting work to do, so they could advance. Our young artists dream about such things”.

Dmitry Vdovin, the Artistic Director of The Bolshoi Theatre Young Artists Opera Program.
