Our Initiatives

Park City Opera has two major artistic initiatives:

  • Concert Series & Events (Year-round)

All engagements with Park City Opera are compensated.

We believe in building lasting relationships with artists. Artists who work with Park City Opera join our Artists Collective!

Our Artists Collective

Our Artists Collective includes singers, instrumentalists, and artists hired by Park City Opera. It is built on the following principles:

  • Community-Centered: We are committed to hiring local artists with a connection to our community, as well as introducing national talent to Park City. In turn, our artists believe in making opera more approachable and play an active role in cultivating a sense of community around our performances.

  • Lasting Relationships: We believe in rehiring artists. Strong relationships between artists and our organization lead to better, more cohesive performances. When artists are familiar with our culture and expectations, they can deliver their best work.

  • Support and Inclusion: We are dedicated to creating a supportive and inclusive working environment. Our artists contribute to this environment with an ethos of mutual respect and open communication.

Meet our Artists Collective

Hear it from our artists:

“Park City Opera provided an incredibly supportive and professional environment throughout my contract. The team was organized, communicative, and truly invested in the success of every artist. I especially appreciated the high-quality productions and the opportunity to perform in beautiful venues that brought out the best in our work. The sense of community among artists and staff made the experience both inspiring and enjoyable. Overall, PCO offered a rewarding balance of artistic challenge and personal support, making it one of my favorite contracts.”

“To be greeted with sold-out crowds for every performance of Barber was exciting, and this is only the beginning. As a Utah resident, I'm so glad that there are more local places to share my love of classical music!”

— Ensemble Member

“PCO clearly valued the musicians hired and showed support from day one to closing for the orchestra. I always knew that I was a valuable member of the production, and that is not the case with every gig! Very grateful to PCO and inspired by their drive, they are creating something very special here in Utah!”

“Park City Opera is just about the most artist-friendly company that I have ever worked for. Everyone on the team is either a singer or conductor, so they understand what it is to meet the demands of performing opera. From mindfulness of our vocal health during the rehearsal process to making us feel supported during the performances, the PCO team was always doing everything they could to help us be our best. Thank you all so much for such a fantastic experience!”

“Park City Opera is truly collaborative. The musical and theatrical visions were super clear and specific. Even so, there was always so much room for creativity and our individual artistry. Also, the company did a great job of only hiring people wonderful people at every level of the organization.”

  • Park City Opera might be a perfect place for you if:

    • You are excited to bring opera outside of the traditional opera house. We perform in unique venues that showcase the natural beauty of Park City.

    • You are committed to artistic excellence.

    • You are excited to contribute to the future of opera (one that makes it a more approachable, accessible art form).

  • Park City Opera is now casting for its 2025–2026 programming. This includes two initiatives: a year-round concert series and the company’s mainstage opera productions.

    • The year-round concert series is open to local singers only. Local singers are defined as those living within a reasonable commuting distance to Park City. Park City Opera is unable to provide housing or travel reimbursements for local singers.

    • Mainstage opera productions include David Conte’s The Gift of the Magi in December 2025 and one or more operas in Summer 2026 (titles and dates to be announced). The mainstage casting call is open to both local and nonlocal singers.

  • Thanks to all local, Utah-based artists who auditioned for Park City Opera’s upcoming season on October 11.

    If you are a non-local artist (or a local artist who missed October auditions), you are eligible to audition for our 2025–26 Season mainstage productions. Prescreenings are currently open and those invited for a live audition in January 2026 will be notified of their audition status no later than three weeks before their audition date.

    Utah-based instrumentalists and collaborative pianists can always reach out to us via our contact form on this page. Please attach your resume!
