Dr. Naomi André, a celebrated musicologist and scholar, is a frequent contributor to the community discussions surrounding the new opera "Blue" and its production at Toledo Opera. In this conversation with WGTE's Brad Cresswell, Dr. André sheds light on where "Blue" not only fits into the traditional operatic canon, but how operas like this are directly relevant to today's societal issues of race relations, and point the way to the future of the art form itself. "Blue" with music by Jeanine Tesori and libretto by Tazewell Thompson is being produced by Toledo Opera in August 2022, more information here: https://www.toledoopera.org/upcoming-performances/season-event/blue/. Toledo Opera is a sponsor of WGTE programs.
