“This program has been just unforgettable. I am truly grateful for the knowledge and experience that I have gained through this program, and for the friendships and connections that I have made along the way. The expert guidance and instruction from the faculty coupled with a kind and friendly approach have allowed me to grow both artistically and personally.
I have had the privilege to work and consult with world-renowned experts, even my professional idols and to experience standing on one of the greatest stages existing, Carnegie Hall.
Working with Vincero Academy made it possible to ‘touch the stars’. I am certain that the skills and confidence I have developed here will serve me well as I pursue a career in opera, and I look forward to representing your program with pride and distinction. Thank you for the incredible opportunity to be a student of this prestigious program, and for helping me to realize my full potential as an artist.”

“Vincerò Academy is one of the most important learning platforms that currently exist. In addition to having excellent teachers, it connects you directly with the most influential characters in opera. I highly recommend the academy which gave me the opportunity to make my Carnegie Hall debut and meet some very talented people.”
Madeleine G. - Cherubino
“It was an amazing experience. Great opportunities, with friends that sing marvelously, great teachers, and guidance. ¡Thank you vincerò!”

“I’m going to be honest and say I had my thoughts about preparing a role online. I didn’t even know how to use Zoom, but Vincerò Academy not only met my expectations…it surpassed them greatly. It is a very well organized and structured program down to its core and everybody involved in it is a professional who is currently working on the field. Teachers and mentors are genuinely interested in guiding you properly.
I confirmed one needs to work hard through the WHOLE process in order to achieve positive results and there’s no other way around it. Vincerò's huge advantage is that it’s a safe environment where you can study, train, prepare yourself, and get to know the business as a young artist.
It required a leap of faith, but I’m very happy I decided to invest in this project. ‘Artistry’ has gained a much broader meaning to me.”
Fernando C. - Escamillo
"What I loved the most about Vincerò was the exchange of thoughts and ideas we were able to share, which led to an extremely deep understanding of the piece that is seldom achieved.
When you have such a diverse group of artists, this enriches your experience, your perspective, and your knowledge about the opera: its plot, the music itself, the characters, and their relationship amongst each other.
I also loved that this was such a supportive, prejudice-free space to learn.
I felt free to be my own self, with my virtues and flaws, to let my voice flow, to make mistakes and learn from them, having such a lovely web of encouraging professionals and colleagues to help me achieve the best version I could deliver in every stage of the learning process.
We didn’t just learn from the amazing professionals we worked with, but we also learned from one another and having this sense of community in such difficult times was true a gift!"
Daniela Y. - Micaela
“In one of the most difficult moments for singers in history, Vincerò Academy arrived to show people around the world that music and musicians continue here doing our passion.
Personally, Vincerò Academy gived me the opportunity to learn with masters in different parts of the world and incredible careers. I'm going to remember all the knowledge for the rest of my life.
In the new family of Vincerò Academy are incredible singers and incredible people. This academy is one of the best things that could happen during Covid times.
Special thanks to maestro Abdiel Vázquez and all the people in Vincerò Academy. I'm very grateful for this amazing opportunity.”
Luis C. - Don Jose
“During this period I had the chance to work with great coaches and singers and every single one of them shared really valuable knowledge and feedback that will stay with me from now on.
I had the privilege to meet singers from all nationalities and I can definitely say this was the most supporting group of singers I've meet in a long time. Such talented and kind people!
There's so much information that I'm still assimilating and I'm thrilled for the future and the new perspective I've got from this experience.
Thank your to all members of Vincerò Academy for giving us the opportunity to sing again and helping us see the light at the end of this tunnel! It meant a lot to me.”
Lygia C. - Carmen
“Some of the biggest lessons I have learned at Vincerò Academy? Fasten your seatbelts because I have a few…
I’ve come to the realization that done is better than perfect, and that the refinement can be done in the journey! I’ve been reminded - in a hands-on manner - that the little building blocks of every day work, practice and setting achievable goals are the most important aspect of our journey as artists. Which is easier said than done - I know! - but when you have 3 months to work on an Opera in a thorough manner under the guidance of great leaders, it’s easier to build and nurture those habits.
And last but not least, I’ve leaned that having a community of supportive artists and incredible world renowned musicians such as in Vincerò, is an incredibly nurturing and a safe place to grow - and to be vulnerable! I cherish every memory! I believe we all grow more and in a healthier way by lifting each other up! And Vincerò has been all that and so much more.
I feel this was a turning point in my career as a singer and I’m very excited and confident in what comes next - and believe me, I have been more in a roller coaster of confidence and skepticism than anything else in the past, I’m only human! So, thank you thank you thank you!!!”
Rebecca A. - Carmen and Donna Elvira
“Vincerò offers a fantastic opportunity for any opera singer to study a role in detail with a remarkable and world-renowned faculty. The program is structured very well. All the coaches are not only super knowledgeable but also wonderful to work with. The group classes provide so much insight, and they are a safe and supportive space to dive into the character, experiment, and grow.”
Jannik H. - Don Giovanni
“The biggest lesson that I have learned at Vincerò Academy has been that I am capable of more than I thought when I am confident. Working with such amazing industry professionals who encouraged me and helped me to become aware of habits has completely transformed me as a singer.
I used to doubt my musical choices out of a fear of being ‘too much’, but now I know that as long as they are informed and well thought out, there is no problem with trying things out. Oftentimes, I think as young singers we wait for people to tell us what to do. Maestro Anthony Manoli said it so well in a masterclass — this is the difference between conservatory singing and professional singing. You have to be willing to put yourself out there and take a chance.
I think that moving forward, I will be bold. I will do the preparation work SO thoroughly that no one (including myself) doubts my musical choices. I will be able to defend them and give a convincing performance. I’m so grateful to Vincerò for teaching me how to delve into a score efficiently, but also to believe in myself again as an artist.”
Kirsten L. - Zerlina
“My experience with Vincerò Academy has truly enriched my life and career. I have so many new professional connections, friends and tools in my musical toolbox than I could have imagined I’d gain. The hard work and dedication of all the staff and the participants made it an extraordinary experience that I will always cherish. Thank you Vincerò for choosing me to be part of the history of your Academy.”
Erika A. - Violetta
“After so long without having an operatic performance due to the pandemic, Vincerò Academy gave me the confidence and tools I needed to continue working on my craft. It was an absolute privilege to be able to work with Abdiel Vazquez and dive into the character and musical interpretation. He and all of the masterclass technicians and coaches were so kind and generous with their knowledge and expertise. I highly recommend this program to any singer from undergrad to young professional!
Thank you so much again for this amazing program!!”
