This work was a particularly deep, conversational collaboration between composer and librettist. Composer Janine Tesori notes that in her compositions, “The text always leads.” But even more so in this case: as a Black librettist with lived experience of the characters depicted in this opera, Tazewell Thompson’s words are the framework and backbone of this work. Tesori says, “I’m visiting in this landscape as a white artist. […] The poetry in Blue comes from Tazewell’s heart.” [Source: Seattle Opera interview, 2022]
