Here's What Singers are Saying about BASOTI"Thank you for the strong framework that BASOTI provided me with - coaching Olympia and many other roles that I am now performing and the wonderful staff over that summer. Now that I am beginning an opera apprenticeship with these demanding roles I want to thank you for [the] personal attention and continued support and nurturing of budding careers and talent." "...The experience of working with such masters...opened
new avenues of awareness and commitment...and made me want to work
hard to achieve the best performance I could deliver." "I had a fantastic time. I performed in the full opera of
Le Nozze di Figaro with orchestra, one scene from Magic Flute and one mock
audition...The most helpful person in the program was Maestro
Matthias Kuntzsch. "I learned so much and had such a great experience
working with all the excellent faculty and talented singers." "I can't tell how much I enjoyed BASOTI this summer. It
was a wonderful and caring environment. I will never forget what
Sylvia, Matthias and David have done for my artistry, technique and confidence." "...directors, teachers and coaches are top-notch, patient,
and give 100 percent—you can request coaching and people are happy
to accommodate you. It is truly a program that cares about singers." "...The individual coaching, master classes, Alexander Technique
instruction, and acting sessions enabled me to grow as a singer, musician,
and performer. What began as a musical journey became a wonderful
life experience." "Each year of my participation in this unique program, BASOTI has
challenged me to rise to the next level of my commitment and integrity
as an artist. The faculty and staff focus their attention on providing
an atmosphere whereby a singer can discover the artist within and develop
the necessary tools for a professional career in opera." The Faculty Adds..."BASOTI brings a unique opera program packed with opportunities
to learn and perform. No other program I know offers so much at such an
affordable price." "BASOTI changes lives." "What distinguishes BASOTI from other summer opera programs is our
commitment to developing the particular skills of each participant toward
the next step on his/her professional path." "Every summer a new wave of highly talented young singers
come to BASOTI. What a delight for me to encourage them, push
them and guide them, and watch them blossom in enthusiastic and
sparkling performances! Opera will never die!" |
