Want Some Suggestions of Standard Soprano Rep?


WOLF TRAP OPERA



These lists are culled from the 4 arias listed by each singer on the application form. Since they allow singers to change their lists, there’s no guarantee that these are the actual pieces that are sung; however, it’s a good general idea of how popular a given aria is among YAP auditioners.

SOPRANOS
Arias offered by 163 sopranos scheduled for auditions for the 2011 season:

The Runaway Winner at 40X
Ach ich fühl’s

Quite Popular at 15-25X
Caro nome
Deh vieni
Je suis encor
Je veux vivre
No word from Tom / I go to him
Quando m’en vo

Moderately Frequent at 10-14X

Chi il bel sogno di Doretta
