Tessitura


Tessitura explores the entangled ways that voice, character, and
gender are continuously reformulated in opera by those who
contend with these connections daily. Through the voices of
singers Breanna Sinclairé, Lucas Bouk, Katherine Goforth, and
musicologist Dr. Naomi André, contemporary narratives weave
between opera’s historical conventions around gender, illuminating
the traditions and transformations shaping the field today.
