After the qualifying singers have registered, singers who participated but were designated as "limited qualifiers" may register for available slots at any open district, including the Nebraska District. Full information including the submission platform "Resonance," eligibility, repertoire requirements & technical instructions is now posted at the Metropolitan Opera Laffont Competition site [Application link below].
