2008 Audition Tour: List of Arias Heard

The previously posted Aria Frequency List comprises all of the arias listed by singers heard this year.

The list below represents the opening arias (always singer’s choice) and the follow-up arias requested by the panel. The opening aria is listed first, with the various second choices in the [brackets].

This list is raw data. If you’re looking for any intepretation and/or comparison, go here.

This is a tremendous amount of information that I’ve crunched in a brief time. Please forgive any typos that resulted.

Enjoy.

It seems,judging on repertoire, that about 98% of the soprano and, especially, mezzo — are light lyric voices.Is it a general tendency for certain YAP age group or the “earlier resume development” which made you to grant an audition for certain type of voice?(I apologise for a poor English).
