Steve Crawford has conducted at the Metropolitan Opera, Kentucky, Dayton, Opera Roanoke, Opera Idaho, Chautauqua, and many others. He has worked at numerous young artist programs, and coaches in Manhattan. I particularly love working Italian repertoire with Steve, but watch out --- he is famous for his sly musical puns.

Acting Coach Marc Verzatt
I am pleased and proud to call director and acting coach Marc Verzatt a longtime mentor and friend. I've known him since my apprentice days at Chicago Lyric Opera, where he was an assistant director, and I hire him to teach acting to my Spotlight on Opera students. Marc has a unique perspective and system for coaching singers and helping them achieve the performances they want to achieve. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
