CADF is also proud to support the 2012 Butler School of Music Young Artist Program (BOCYAP).

After a month of intensive training with talented vocal UT faculty, the students perform a final concert, participate in a competition and then return to their schools with added skills and a new confidence that comes from their BOCYAP experience.
Talented young singers who want to experience opera the University of Texas way should visit , send video auditions by today, or DVD auditions by April 7. Live auditions will be completed on March 24 and April 6. All interested parties must register by April 7. The cost of tuition is $650 and merit scholarships are available. The final concerts will take place on June 28 (Group A) and June 29 (Group B) at 7 pm. For more information, visit .
