There is no better way to experience the magic of Merola than by becoming a member. Each summer, members get a unique, "backstage" view of the training of tomorrow’s opera stars. Here's some benefits our great members receive:

Go behind-the-scenes with special vocal master classes and witness Merola's young artists from around working with some of opera’s most exciting legends.
