Bidu Sayão Competition new edition

The applications for the 9th Bidu Sayão International Competition are available.

The conjunction of forces between the State Government, through the Department of culture and the sponsorship of CEMIG – Electrical Centers of Minas Gerais, and the tax waiver by the Federal Government through the support of the Ministry of Culture and the Federal Law of Incentives, make it possible to take this competition forward, which is a victory for all Brazilian singers.

With the candidates selected from the Bidu Sayão, both national and foreign, various groups can be started that are dedicated to the study and practice of opera, to the dissemination of the enormous classical repertoire, to complementary educational training projects and to so many other possibilities patterned after what is taking place in centers for excellence in culture outside Brazil.

We are experiencing the paradox of an extreme need of support for singing, and at the same time, as the very results of the Bidu Sayão reveal, an enormous creative effervescence, which generates a demand by a job market that is considerable and in a phase of full acceleration.

Success to all.
