Soprano Rhiannon Cooper has won the 2023 Dame Malvina Major Foundation Scholarship at the New Zealand Opera School in Whanganui.
The annual scholarship, worth $5,000, is awarded to a student of the residential school, based on their voice and potential observed during their time at the school in January. It is adjudicated by the New Zealand Opera School’s international and New Zealand tutors.
Congratulations Rhiannon!
