Publisher Resources
OPERA America has awarded nearly $20 million over the last 25 years to support the premieres and subsequent productions of opera and music-theater pieces created by North American composers and librettists. In addition to offering financial support to companies' new works endeavors, OPERA America provides the means for publishers to promote their artists and connect with other professionals in the field. Many of the services we provide to composers and librettists will also be of use.

Opera for Youth Directory
The
Opera for Youth Directory provides comprehensive information about operas that can be performed for or by young people.

The directory can be browsed in a number of ways and will prove useful for educators, directors and others involved in the creation of opera and musical theater.
