A French contestant Virginie Verrez bucked serious odds to win first prize and $10,000 at the 28th Annual Dallas Opera Guild Vocal Competition.

Virginie Verrez, a member of the Met’s Lindemann Young Artist Development Program, made her Met debut this season as the Madrigalist in a new production of Manon Lescaut and will return to the Met as Stéphano in Gounod’s Roméo et Juliette, conducted by Dallas’s Emmanuel Villaume.
