En #África también se canta #ópera. Y un ejemplo es la extraordinaria @vuvumpofu.
Esta soprano sudafricana, de origen rural y humilde, aprendió a cantar imitando a sus divas preferidas. Hoy es mundialmente reconocida.
¡Disfrutad!

Faz anos que consumo opera. Me acalma. Desde os 13 anos curto o "estilo". Pasmem. So hoje. Sim HOJE que descobri (resolvi pesquisar) a existência de cantores preto no segmento. Negros, vamos fomentar nossa arte. Tem negros em todos os lugares fazendo de tudo. @vuvumpofu ❤️
Sensuous singing by @vuvumpofu, even when the vocal line suddenly turned stratospheric in the final act..was that a couple of top Es?? Whatever they were, they sparkled.
@KaiRuutel was also superb, helping to ground this wacky opera with some semblance of reality.
Der Schmied Von Ghent @operaballetvl was excellently cast throughout with @leigh_melrose dramatically compelling, full of energy and providing beautiful lyrical singing. I hope he gets to sing it again. @vuvumpofu was both visually and vocally striking as the temptress Astarte
Also this weekend, you can (geography permitting) see @raenicholls as Isolde in Frankfurt; @SimonShibambu as Angelotti in @operadelyon's Tosca; @MJScott_Tenor & @vuvumpofu in Der Schmied von Gent @operaballetvl; and the list goes on!
