They also participate in master classes and other group instruction offered to the adult Festival students. 

*Advanced NTVT students wishing to participate in the opera chorus for the staged production of "Les contes d'Hoffmann" should indicate this on their applications and must enroll for the 23-day NTVT session. The primary performance opportunity for the Napa Teen Vocal Track (NTVT) will be a public concert at the conclusion of the session.

NTVT is a residential (overnight) program.  The Festival will provide on-site supervision of the housing facility where students will stay.  NTVT students may opt to participate as day students at a reduced tuition rate as long as they have family or other responsible adult overnight supervision throughout the program.  Please contact festival administration for further information on this option.
