Tenor Joshua Stewart—up next as The Son in Blue and last at Seattle Opera playing Charlie Parker in Charlie Parker's Yardbird—returns with an intimate jazz recital. Born and raised in New Orleans, Stewart released his first solo album at age 12: New Orleans Jazz Prodigy. His program explores the porous boundaries between the Great American Songbook, New Orleans jazz, and American art song, and includes works by Margaret Bonds, John W. Work, Florence Price, and George Walker among others. Stewart explores what it means today to be a classically trained singer and says this program "captures the current period of my career where I am actively peeling away the different labels that I've had put upon me."

“He handled the stratospheric tessitura and dramatic demands of this non-stop tour de force with such great proficiency that the audience practically raised the roof with their applause at the end.”
