The Jury of the Concours International de Chant de Marmande is made up exclusively of personalities who are in a position to propose engagements to the candidates. These are potential employers who come to listen to singers at the start of their careers.

In 2023, we have invited 33 personalities to sit on the Competition Jury, the majority of whom are women (17 as opposed to 16 men). For scheduling reasons, some of them were unable to accept our invitation.

We are continuing our efforts to convince female directors and personalities holding decision-making positions in opera companies of the importance of being represented on our Jury.
