the management:
something different

NCAM, founded in 2020 by Daniel Welch and Keith Chambers, is a boutique agency focusing on a small number of artists, developing them as known professionals in the opera industry through brand recognition, exceptional artistry, and modern business acumen.

The goal is a hands-on relationship between the artists and the management featuring open dialogue about everything from career management and contract negotiations to branding and public engagement. NCAM wants each artist to achieve their version of success in this 21st Century opera-scape.
