National Opera Studio place for Justina

Justina Gringyte in Britten's Women

Music Performance student Justina Gringyte has just won a place at the prestigious National Opera Studio.

The National Opera Studio offers a master course for a small number of exceptionally talented singers and repetiteurs that they believe have real prospects of becoming principal artists.

Previous graduates from the Royal Welsh College include Stephanie Corley (PG Dip Music Performance 2004) who is taking the title role in The Merry Widow at Opera North this season and Carthaigh Quill (PG Dip Music Performance 2009), who is in the full WNO chorus and singing the role of Spoletta in Tosca this season.

The College is currently taking applications for the new MA in Opera Performance which starts in September.
