All auditions for Opera Saratoga’s Young Artist Programs are handled through YAP Tracker.

Apprentice and Studio Artists play important roles in the company's annual Summer Season.  Apprentice Artists are featured in concert and outreach performances, sing supporting roles and chorus in mainstage repertoire, and participate in masterclasses.  Studio Artists receive class training, sing chorus in mainstage repertoire, and prepare a recital program.  A small number of singers are admitted each year, allowing considerable individual opportunity and attention for each singer.
