Principal Artist Program
ISV is a comprehensive career training program that bridges the gap between academic studies and a professional career in opera for some of the brightest and best international talents. Our goal is to contribute to the world of the performing arts with exceptional and unique individuals. Principal Artists are required to train in person and must live in or near NYC.
Based on an initial audition and consultation, artists are given an outline for the projected development of their voice work and then placed into a level to begin in our graduated curriculum. Here they will be introduced to the principles of the EDT model and their specific level studies. As the artist advances through the system, they are given more complex and layered technical, musical, linguistic, and interpretive exercises. The exams to move forward in level will be scheduled as the artist’s readiness allows, as timing and development is individual.

Career Advisorship
Desires that those artists who are suited for career be given the opportunity to be completely prepared for entrance into professional life. Training at ISV gives them the technical and artistic tools to be thorough in their control of the instrument and work. The ISV Consultation group designs a strategy for each artist as to how that work is to be established and conveyed to the industry of classical vocal performance and opera.
