In 2011-2012, in addition to the national voice competition in opera outlined on The American Prize website, contestants could elect to be considered for three $500 prizes to be awarded as performance fees to opera soloists invited to appear under Maestro David Katz’s baton in concert with the Chicago Bar Association Symphony Orchestra & Chorus in May 2012.
The selection process for the Chicago Opera Award is separate from The American Prize judging. Winning one competition does not preclude the possibility of winning the other. The three singers selected to perform will be announced on The American Prize blog and to the media as winners of the Chicago Opera Award, but will not receive additional written evaluations or certificates beyond those they may receive as contestants for The American Prize.
