Join Northern Ireland Opera and BBC Radio 3 in the beautiful coastal village of Glenarm this August for our annual celebration of song: The Glenarm Festival of Voice.

Now in its twelfth year, this much-loved event brings together BBC Radio 3 recitals, outreach events, performances by emerging artists and culminates in the Competition Finale, hosted by our Patron, BBC Radio 3 broadcaster Sean Rafferty, where five singers from across the island of Ireland compete in front of a live jury panel to win the Deborah Voigt Opera Prize and become the NI Opera Voice of 2022.

The five finalists who will compete in the 12th Festival of Voice are Hannah O’Brien (soprano), Heather Sammon (mezzo-soprano), Michael Bell (tenor), Owen Lucas (tenor) and David Kennedy (baritone). The Peter Rankin Piano Intern for 2022 is Doireann O’Carroll.

The winner of the Deborah Voigt Opera Prize at the Finale on 28th August was Owen Lucas, who also won the Audience Prize.  Hannah O’Brien won the Song Prize.
