On March 3, North High performing arts students were treated to a masterclass led by representatives from the New York City Opera (NYCO). Eight student vocalists performed operatic selections and received supportive feedback from NYCO General Director Michael Capasso and soprano Lori Phillips.
The guests also offered professional insights, led breathing exercises and demonstrated performance techniques. This masterclass was made available through an educational outreach grant from NYCO. Student performers worked with Michael Capasso and Lori Phillips. North High instrumental music teacher Joseph Rutkowski, and Fine and Performing Arts Chair/vocal music teacher Dr. Pamela Levy were also in attendance.
