APPRENTICES //

Apprenticeships and Internships are led by BOA Faculty and Staff across various departments. While being given the autonomy to take on responsibility, embrace opportunities, and work from their own initiative, individuals are able to gain confidence through experience. It is our belief that this is the most effective way of preparing for careers in the opera industry.
