Plácido Domingo’s Operalia

The World Opera Competition

As part of the EXPO-2017, the Astana Opera House will host one of the most prestigious opera competitions, Plácido Domingo’s Operalia, which will take place from 24 to 29 July 2017.

Plácido Domingo’s Operalia, The World Opera Competition, was founded in 1993 by Plácido Domingo to discover and help launch the careers of the most promising young opera singers of today.

Singers between the ages of eighteen and thirty-two, of all voice tessituras and from every country in the world can take part in the Competition. The jury of twelve opera experts, presided by Plácido Domingo as a non-voting member, convenes in a different international host city every year to listen to each of the forty chosen participants. Twenty participants are then selected to continue on to the semi-finals, and ten singers are chosen for the Final Round.

The quarter-finals and semi-finals are carried out in audition form, accompanied by Operalia’s official pianists, but the Final Round is presented in the form of a gala concert accompanied by full orchestra and conducted by Maestro Plácido Domingo himself.
