A Program Made for the Future of Australian Opera
LGNOP
LGNOP was established in 2011 as an independent entity with its own dedicated staff, and a flexible program that adapts to the ever-changing operatic landscape. LGNOP does not offer a degree and is not associated with those offered by Queensland Conservatorium which provides LGNOP space and economic oversight for money raised entirely by LGNOP.
LGNOP is the only national cultural training organisation based in Queensland. Institutions like the Australian Ballet, NIDA (National Institute of Dramatic Arts), ANAM (Australian National Academy of Music), and the National Art School are situated elsewhere in Australia.
Our Alumni
A survey conducted in 2022 revealed that of our 157 alumni (2011-2022 with orchestral musicians excluded), 82% are still within the music industry nationally or internationally.
1/3 of the 157 are Queenslanders. 42 additional students from QCGU or The University of Queensland Music Department have been Chorus members.
This survey demonstrates LGNOP’s integral support to emerging artists.
