Chief Lady Correspondent! ft. Lucy Caplan & Joelle Harvey

[@3 min] Alright, this week...we go Inside the Huddle with Dr. Lucy Caplan, author of a recently published history of a Golden Age in American classical music called "Dreaming in Ensemble: How Black Artists Transformed America Opera." In addition to tantalizing us with all the operas by American composers that have never been heard in modern times, Lucy Caplan also has ideas about what we should do instead of performing Aida in blackface.[@31 min] And then…soprano Joelle Harvey takes a Free Throw on the female voice and how experiences only women have affect the instrument. Thank goodness we have Ashlee on hand for that one...[@52 min] Plus, in the ‘Two Minute Drill’…Portland Opera is moving out of its mother’s basement and into its own loft downtown, and, breaking news, no one likes America anymore!GET YOUR VOICE HEARDoperaboxscore.comfacebook.com/obschi1bsky @operaboxscore
