Hello everyone!

Here is your weekly digest of news and events information from the Oberlin 
Conservatory of Music.

Congratulations are again in order for Alyson Cambridge, our alumna who won =

the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions last month. I have just 
learned that she has been invited to join--and has accepted--a position in 
the Metropolitan Opera's Lindemann Young Artist Development Program. She 
will begin this program at the Met this September.

As if that were not enough, last weekend she was the top First Prize winner =

at the Licia Albanese-Puccini Foundation International Voice Competition. 
The preleminary rounds were held in New York City from April 21 - 26; the 
finals were Saturday the 27th. She will receive $5,000 and most important, 
will make her Alice Tully Hall debut at the Winners' Concert, November 1, 
2003.

Tomorrow she leaves for six weeks at the Opera Theatre of St. Louis 
Ensemble Program, where she will cover the title role in Massenet's
