Organisateur : Université du Michigan.

« Our series offers various perspectives in order to help everyone appreciate the breadth and depth of this important work. This first event features four speakers outlining and analyzing the opera’s content and contexts, as well as exploring its historical and political resonances, broader traditions of Black opera, ideas about performance practice, and providing resources to support further examination of the issues discussed. Attendees will also be treated to a performance of an aria from the opera, “Come with Me Child,” by Myah Rose Paden, a second-year Masters student in vocal performance at the University of Michigan’s School of Music, Theatre, and Dance, accompanied by Josh Marzan. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and discuss ideas from the presentations. »
