Backstage at Lyric #104 -- A Masked Ball: Stephanie Blythe




Lyric Opera of Chicago Podcasts show

Summary: No Lyric debut in recent seasons has been more eagerly anticipated than that of Stephanie Blythe. The American mezzo-soprano, a star of the Metropolitan Opera, Covent Garden, and the Opera National de Paris, is universally recognized by critics and audiences as one of the finest artists of our time. In this conversation with Lyric broadcast producer Mark Travis, she discusses the two very different roles she's performing in her first Lyric season -- Mme. Arvidson/A Masked Ball (debut) and Katisha/The Mikado.
