OPERA America serves as the principle collective voice and organizational leader of our broader field. How do we feel about it as an institution? What role does it play/ could it play? What is it getting right/ wrong from the perspective of singers? @OperaVHO @OPERAAmerica
We need your voice. . . . Applications are now open for the SINGTANK cabinet, as well as topic submissions for the 2022 Summit! Deadline is November 15th, 2022! @OperaVHO @OPERAAmerica #SINGTANK #OperaSingers #Opera #ClassicalMusic #Musicians #SolidarityForMusicians
This draws from @OperaVHO's corporate documents. VHO has found these Principles to be invaluable in guiding a wide range of activities. They are not intended to be legalistic regulations, but rather address value systems, culture, communication, tone, and priorities.
What steps can an opera company, voice competition or other organization take to increase singer representation? @OperaVHO @OPERAAmerica #SINGTANK #Opera #ClassicalMusic #Artists #Musicians #SolidarityForMusicians #Singers #Voice #OperaSingers
SINGTANK is calling for institutions of all kinds—companies, competitions, programs, artist agencies—to examine levels of singer representation, draft minimum percentages of singer representation into their structures, and empower singers with actual decision-making influence.
@OPERAAmerica's 2021 Field-Wide Demographic Report revealed that only 15% of Board positions are filled by BIPOC members. Here's another opportunity to increase diversity, creativity, and knowledge of the industry—by inviting more singers to the Boardroom. @OperaVHO
Singers are woefully underrepresented in leadership positions in their own art form. Positions of power and influence—executive administrators, Board members, management, casting directors, competition adjudicators—broadly lack meaningful representation by singers. @OperaVHO
SINGTANK recommends companies adopt the following AUDITION BEST PRACTICES to ensure more equity and more respectful and successful auditions for singers and companies alike. @OperaVHO @OPERAAmerica
One rigorous case study found singers having to expend hundreds or even thousands of dollars per audition. This is neither fair or sustainable, and leads to the rapid exclusion of artists at all levels of the career. @OperaVHO @OPERAAmerica
Real change starts with a shift in thinking. @OperaVHO @OPERAAmerica #SINGTANK #OperaSingersOfInstagram #Opera #ClassicalMusic #ArtistsOfInstagram #Musicians #SolidarityForMusicians #Singers #Voice #VoiceLessons #OperaSingers
In areas like over-scheduling, discouragement of vocal marking in rehearsal, unpaid/underpaid labor, unprofessional accommodation, and exploitative auditions, the Singing Robot Myth exploits singers. It doesn't acknowledge the full reality of the embodied instrument. @OperaVHO
