Now in its 10th year, the Young Artists Program proudly showcases outstanding emerging talents in the Philippine music scene. This season features Isabela Madero, one of the country’s most promising young sopranos.

Isabela’s musical journey began at the age of four, captivating family and friends with her natural vocal talent. She later pursued formal training under Ms. Perpy Health and earned high distinction in the ARSM Diploma in Music Performance. Her growing list of accolades includes the Gold Award for Operatic Solo at the VAYA International Music Festival (2021), the New York Young Performer’s Prize, Second Place at the Vienna Virtuoso Festival, and First Place with the Judges’ Best Performance Award at the 2022 North American Virtuoso International Music Competition.

In 2025, she participated in the Vienna Opera Academy Summer Program, performing as a chorus member in Mozart’s Don Giovanni and Così fan tutte. In 2024, she began formal training with Chilean tenor Maestro Giancarlo Monsalve. She currently studies under renowned tenor Arthur Espiritu as she prepares for her first professional solo concert.
