Biog – Luise Napier. Began to take singing lessons with a local teacher at about nine years of age, entering City of Sydney Eisteddfod, Railway Eisteddfod and St.George Eisteddfods over a number of years and also competing in many Talent Quests. After winning one of these Quests was spotted and asked to audition for JCWilliamsons. Was immediately taken into the chorus of “Funny Girl” which toured both Australia and New Zealand.

Following this tour was cast in “Fiddler on the Roof” which toured all the same cities in Australia and New Zealand. During this time was encouraged, by Conductor Alan Barker, to begin developing an operatic vocal technique and building operatic repertoire. Subsequently, had lessons with Evelyn Hall de Izal, before auditioning for The Australian Opera in 1972. In 1973 joined The Australian Opera Chorus for the opening of the Opera House. During that time, performed and understudied many roles. After eleven years in the chorus became a Principal Singer for a number of years, following which, accepted the position of Resident Director. Held this position for over 21 years. During the years with AO/OA as a singer, worked with such Conductors as Edward Downes, Mark Elder, Richard Bonynge, Bill Reid, Geoffrey Arnold, Richard Gill, Stuart Challendar, to name a few and was fortunate to have individual coachings with Professor Kaiser Bremer, Peter Robinson, Julia de Plater, Simone Young (when she was a repetiteur) Sharrolyn Kimmorley, Tony Legge, Linnhe Robertson and many other local and overseas visiting coaches. Directors included: Sam Wanamaker, Sir Robert Helpmann, John Cox, John Copley, Elke Neidhardt, Stuart Maunder, Elijah Moshinsky, Bernd Benthaak, Moffatt Oxenbould, Christopher Renshaw, Lotfi Mansouri and many others.

THE DAME MALVINA MAJOR FOUNDATION ARIA

CLASS 133 - PRELIMINARIES

The Dame Malvina Major Foundation First Prize - $5,000*

The Opera Foundation Second Prize - $2,500 The Pegasus Bay Winery Third Prize - $500

Pre-requisite classes: Aria competitors are to enter any three Open classes. Competitors are to nominate two Arias, both of which are to be sung in original language and the original key. The time limit for each Aria is eight minutes. Competitors will sing their first Aria in the Preliminaries and those competitors recalled for the Final will sing both Arias. The Adjudicator has the discretion to choose up to six finalists. Only the Arias as printed in the programme are to be performed. The Dame Malvina Major Foundation is to provide the first prize of $5,000 ($3,500 cash and $1,500 to go towards expenses for the winner to participate in the New Zealand Aria in Rotorua late October/November 2014). The inability of the winner to attend the New Zealand Aria for valid reasons (e.g. due to commitments that cannot be possibly changed or such as previously winner the New Zealand Aria competition) will mean the $1,500 will be available to the winner for a significant career development project approved by DMMF.
