- This year the ASOP Summer Opera Workshop will be held on the prestigious Wake Forest University campus in Winston Salem (NC). This is a wonderful improvement over previous venues, with excellent performance facilities and dormitories. We are excited for this new opportunity, and would like to thank the Wake Forest University Department of Music, especially Dr. Stewart Carter, Chair, and Prof. Richard Heard (a member of our Board of Directors) for their help and encouragement. Wake Forest University was, for us, an obvious choice. The school's outstanding national and international reputation takes us to a new level, and we hope, in 2011, to offer a second summer opera workshop aimed at high school students as part of our continued growth at Wake Forest.
