"Blue" centers on the hopes and fears of a young black couple as they raise a son in 21st-century America. Prior to the world premiere, Glimmerglass Festival artistic and general director Francesca Zambello moderated a discussion with the work’s creators, Jeanine Tesori and Tazewell Thompson, with members of the cast performing highlights from this new opera.

Sung by Briana Hunter. Accompanied by Kevin Miller.

A touching tale of a family broken by violence and how we can process grief, Blue is an emotional powerhouse of an opera that’s not to be missed. If you like a tearjerker with a heart, we think you’ll love the opera Blue.
