I'm searching for an opera singer (needn't be professional, but must be proficient) who can sing in Esperanto for a recording job.

Any suggestions for tracking down such an individual?

I have a few circuitous ideas, but thought I'd ask here as well.

Thanks!

Ŭaŭ! Kaj oni asertas, ke E-o ne profitigas!

Opera singers are trained to sing in a variety of languages. I'm sure none would shrink away from singing in Esperanto. You probably already thought about your local Faculty of Music: promising opera students would be pleased to start making a name for themselves. Otherwise, if there's a local opera company in your neck of the woods...

What's your project, anyway?

True. Practically every professional opera singer must possess Italian and German and if a singer can those without too alien accent, then E-o will be no-brainer.

Thanks for the tips - I've located an English-speaking opera singer willing to learn the lines phonetically.

@Balbutanto, the project is for a sequence in an audio drama.

Cool! Keep us posted, will you?
