On the birthday of @DameEthelSmyth, @RetrospectOpera is announcing its plan to record her final opera, Entente Cordiale. Read the full statement here: https://t.co/jnvCEKsw6c
You can learn more about the "genre-defying and epically ambitious" Treemonisha here - especially its range of musical influences, including ragtime, jazz and African-American spirituals.

As #BlackHistoryMonth comes to an end, we're remembering our glorious production of Treemonisha, written by Scott Joplin in 1911 but not fully staged until the 1970s. Treemonisha is about a Black community living in Arkansas in the 1880s and reckoning with the legacy of slavery.
Happy #WorldOperaDay!
We're proud to be helping to create an opera world that is more expansive and inclusive - in it stories, its sounds, its aesthetics; for audiences and for those on and off the stage who make it all happen.
Here's to an art form that is full of life ✨
It's release day!! My book on singing Musical Theatre is now available. I really hope it will help singers unlock their true voice and sing with freedom, expression and impact! https://t.co/31d7tW44vC via @AmazonUK
