SENIOR VOCAL & ARIA
​
Aria:
The aria competitions, which began in 1993, are a great opportunity for our young singers to develop their talent, gain confidence, learn from each performance, give pleasure to the audience and have the opportunity to see their potential recognized.
​​​​
These competitions are truly an amazing experience. For more information on the rules, dates, adjudicators, prizes and set pieces, please scroll down and follow the links provided.
