The UW-Milwaukee Voice Area is proud to collaborate with the Supporters of Opera Singers (SOS) in hosting the final round of the Patricia Crump Vocal Competition. Be part of history as we open the doors to the Patricia Crump Vocal Competition Finals for the very first time. Witness the next rising stars of opera as they compete for the top prize, live on stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This competition honors Patricia Crump, founder of SOS, and celebrates young singers with strong ties to Wisconsin as they take important first steps into professional careers. Following a virtual preliminary round, up to ten finalists will travel to Milwaukee to perform in person for a distinguished panel of judges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All finalists receive a $500 award. Additional honors include the Philip Crump Encouragement Award ($2,500) and the Patricia Crump Grand Prize ($5,000), both intended to support career-related expenses. In a meaningful extension of support, all finalists will remain eligible for additional grants for three years following the competition\u2014funding that can assist with audition preparation, training programs, and other essential early-career opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are thrilled to welcome these talented young singers to our campus and to partner with an organization so deeply committed to nurturing the next generation of operatic talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
