Each summer there is a collaboration with German professional institutions, as well as in some conservatories in Athens, the University of the Aegean,
the Apollo Theater, and Municipal buildings in Syros Greece. There is a direct connection to the International Festival of the Aegean which has celebrated
17 years and hundreds of performances featuring thousands of international artists. The Greek Opera Studio participants will be part of a Vocal Ensemble of
solo voices, performing in main stage productions, opera galas, oratorio performances, a Liederabend, some Musical Theater, all while receiving private vocal
