I wasn't aware there were national Opera competitions like this and can't wait to see the documentary. Thanks again for bringing fantastic musical knowledge to the blog.

The next gem - if you are interested would be on January 20th at 9pm eastern (local times may vary - watch local program or check local schedule at pbs.org or thirteen.org if you are interested). It's Susan Fromke documentary "The Audition". It's a documentary about Metropolitan's Opera's National Council Auditions - the most prestigious competition for young opera singers in North America. This is the review http://www.backstage.com/bso/reviews-movie-tv-reviews/the-audition-1004057884.story . You can also find the trailer on YouTube if you search for "the audition metropolitan opera". Posters who were impressed by opera singers on popular talent shows may be interested in comparing these contestants on popular talent shows with semi finalists and finalists of this prestigious opera competition.
