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.
