Heads Up Emerging Artists!

[Sarah Noble @primalamusica]

Hi Opera Twitter. I'm looking for young/emerging artists (whatever those words mean to you!) who would be happy to answer a few questions about what professional life has been like during the past year (good & bad). It's for publication but you can be anonymised if you prefer.

We are one week in and busy at work with Opera InReach! Thank you so much to everyone for your support of this project! We have something special coming soon so be sure to stay tuned!

[Jonelle Sills @jesills]

One of the last things my grandfather said to me before he passed was: "Jonelle I believe God will prosper your career and you will be one of the best." Today I celebrate this milestone for him. Thank you @CBCMusic for the recognition. #inmemoryofgrandad

[Jonelle Sills @jesills]

At its core opera has the power to be revolutionary. I want people who have been made to feel like an “other” to see and feel that power. 💥
I’m very excited to announce that I am a mentor with @operainreach Digital Outreach/ Mentorship programs.

Happy World Opera Day! #WorldOperaDay my favorite pop culture reference to opera... Godfather III - Cavalleria Rusticana. I mean not counting The Fifth Element of course ;) @TapestryOpera #TapIn @IndieOperaTO #meetopera

[Simone Osborne @SimoneOsborne]

Young singer reminder: Be kind to one another. And surround yourself with kind people. Not just because it’s the right thing to do, but because it tends to help you out down the road. And a special thanks to @majeskiamanda for being so wonderful onstage & off. #sopranosisterhood

Fun fact: @lyndsaypromane did Irish dance for ten years, from age 6 to 16. She’s worn a lot of wigs!

“...I was surprised by how much say the artist has in what the audience will see, which doesn’t always happen in more traditional work. This piece of work is being done for the first time so everyone’s voice is involved.” - @lyndsaypromane

[Tapestry Opera @TapestryOpera]

It's Opening Night! Reminder of our new start time of 7:30PM. Today's final #MeetTheCast shines the spotlight on mezzo-soprano Lyndsay Promane (@lyndsaypromane).
