Response to speaking of resumes...

I've been on several grad admission committees at conservatories and universities - I would put the chorus work on the resume (for now)as it shows stage time and implies acting, experience with taking direction quickly, and languages. HOwever, I would put it after your other performing experience, not integrated. Put your roles/scenes in order starting with most recent and then something like:

Opera Ensemble Experience:
Washington National Opera: opera; opera
Kentucky Opera: opera; opera; opera

If you've a ton, just put the ones with the biggest chorus parts. Don't space it out too much so it looks like filler.

Good luck!
