IFAC Australian Singing Competition

The IFAC Australian Singing Competition evolved from the Marianne Mathy Scholarship, which was established through a bequest made in the Will of Marianne Mathy-Frisdane, an operatic soprano and distinguished teacher who trained many well-known Australian singers.

Recognised as Australasia's richest competition for opera & classical singing, in three decades approximately 2,300 singers have entered the competition and in excess of $2,5 million in prizes, plus many career opportunities have been awarded.

The Marianne Mathy Scholarship remains the premier award of the IFAC Australian Singing Competition. This is currently $30,000 plus a select 'suite' of prizes and opportunities that complement and support the Scholarship, bringing the total value to over $40,000, which includes the limited edition Drago Marin Cherina bronze statuette know as 'The Mathy.'
