This program will include arias, duets, and scenes from the 2025 Sarasota Opera winter season as well as from some of opera's most beloved works.

The Sarasota Opera Apprentice and Studio Artist Program is one of the leading training programs in the United States for aspiring singers. Chosen from national auditions, the participants in the Apprentice and Studio Artists Program form the chorus for the main stage opera productions, perform community outreach, understudy principal roles as well as perform secondary roles. Many former Sarasota Opera Apprentice and Studio Artists have gone on to perform leading roles with the company as well as with major opera houses around the world.

Sarasota Opera, known as "Verdi's American Home," enters its 65th consecutive season of bringing world class opera to the gulf coast. Consistently garnering international attention, Sarasota Opera continues to distinguish itself as one of the top opera companies in the United States by finding innovation through tradition. The 2025 Winter Opera Festival includes performances of The Music of Giuseppe Verdi. Verdi has been an important part of the history of Sarasota Opera, the only company in the world to have presented all of his works. Compelling stories with great music and stunning productions make a performance at Sarasota Opera a not-to-be-forgotten experience.
