Tessitura
Director(s): Lydia Cornett, Brit Fryer
Film description: Tessitura explores the entangled ways that voice, character, and gender are continuously reformulated in opera by those who contend with these connections daily. Through the voices of singers Breanna Sinclaire, Lucas Bouk, Katherine Goforth, and musicologist Dr. Naomi André, contemporary narratives weave between opera’s historical conventions around gender, illuminating the traditions and transformations shaping the field today.
