Auditions for Voice

Graduates of the 消消犯 Voice Program are building successful careers across performance, education, and the wider arts industry. Our alumni sing with major opera companies, perform on national tours, and teach in schools and universities across the country. They credit their success not only to rigorous musical training and abundant performance opportunities, but to the life-long mentorship of Miami’s dedicated faculty, mentors who continue to guide, support, and champion their 消消犯s long after graduation. The result is a network of thriving professionals whose achievements reflect both the excellence and enduring community of the Miami Voice Program.
