Description:

Adapted from the Metropolitan Opera Guild's Creating Original Opera Program for public schools, this course provides students who are preparing for a career in opera, as well as student composers, improvisation majors, or students who have taken courses in composition for non-majors, with an opportunity to enrich their career preparation by gaining experience and familiarity with a variety of educational outreach activities designed to engage elementary and secondary school communities in the creation and production of original opera. The course will feature guest speakers and discussion panels comprised of NEC faculty and other appropriate professionals in the field of opera performance or composition in public schools. Those students who elect to use this course as one of their Music-in-Education guided internships may do so in the following areas: composition, turning story into libretto, vocal production in young people, design (stage, lighting, and costume), or stage directing.
