‘Raising Voices’ coming to Hylton Performing Arts

PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY — (Press Release) Raising Voices, a new program of opera and musical theater, will premier at the Hylton Performing Arts Center on Sunday, April 7 at 4 p.m.

The performance is a collaboration of George Mason University’s College of Visual and Performing Arts and the Washington National Opera. It features the combined talent of Domingo-Cafritz Young Artist and Mason Opera and Vocal Studies students.

Under the guidance of Robert Ainsley and Patricia Miller, Raising Voices will feature a joint program of operatic favorites, showcasing singers from both programs in a celebration of the power of the unamplified human voice.

“We are thrilled to continue developing our partnership with one of the premiere young artist programs in the nation,” shared Rick Davis, Dean of Mason’s College of Visual and Performing Arts and Executive Director of the Hylton Performing Arts Center.

“Our talented students learn from working alongside these emerging professionals and through the extraordinary coaching and musical preparation that Rob Ainsley and his team provide.”

“George Mason University’s CVPA is working incredibly hard to provide the highest possible level of training to their performing arts students and to enrich the cultural landscape of Fairfax and beyond; it is a privilege to support them in this endeavor,” Ainsley added.

Tickets to Raising Voices are $20 or free with a student I.D. and can be purchased by phone through the Hylton Center Box Office at 703-993-7759 or online at hylton.calendar.gmu.edu/raising-voices.
