About

Orfeo Vocal Arts Academy (OVAA) is a three-week summer vocal performance program, giving aspiring American singers an opportunity to study and perform in Dresden, Germany. OVAA was founded to fulfill a particular niche with its distinctive open-genre format encompassing early music, traditional grand opera and operetta, American musical theater, pop, jazz, etc. OVAA provides participants with the unique freedom to tailor their study experience to their own individual interests and and career or performance goals A bi-weekly concert series is presented concurrently with the training in order to provide the performers with ample and immediate opportunity to transition from the studio to the stage. Participants are offered multiple weekly voice lessons, musical coachings, dramatic coachings, German language classes and daily master classes and group classes on a variety of topics including audition training, repertoire building, stylistic interpretation, breathing and alignment, and more.
The cultural exchange aspect of OVAA is at the heart of its inspiration. We are passionate about exposing American students to the language, history and traditions of Germany and, conversely, bringing American Musical theater from its New York roots to European audiences. Dresden boasts an international opera house, an operetta theater, a host of touring musical theater productions, and numerous summer festivals. OVAA’s own concert series, performed in palaces, castles and other historical venues, greatly enriches the local musical landscape!
