NATS Artist Award
The
biennial NATSAA competition is
designed to assist singers
prepared to launch a
professional career, and to that
end substantial monetary and
performance prizes are offered.
The competition takes place
every other year, in conjunction
with NATS Conferences.
Preliminary competitions are
held regionally, and
semifinals/finals take place at
the NATS Conference. Details

Competition schedule are listed

"Throughout its history the
purpose of this [NATSAA]
competition has been to select,
through a series of elimination
rounds on the district,
regional, and national levels,
singers whose artistry indicates
that they are ready for a
professional career and to
encourage them toward that goal
with a cash prize and the
opportunity for performance
engagements." --Edward Baird,
President of NATS, 1985-1987
