On May 4, 2025, nine extraordinary young singers pursuing careers as vocal artists competed for over $12,000 in prizes in Opera at Florham's 35th Annual International Vocal Competition. The public was invited to watch these finalists demonstrate exceptional talent in the Operatic art form, adjudicated live by our esteemed judges, and accompanied by Artistic Director Mary Pinto. This year's competition was the culmination of two days of preliminary rounds in New York City before a celebrated collection of jurists.
