Aportia Chryptych: A Black Opera for Portia White
Nova Scotian contralto Portia White was the first Black Canadian concert performer to achieve international fame in the mid-20th century, touring North America and performing in Europe while being hailed as the best classical voice of her generation. Yet despite such artistic accomplishments, her story has been erased from Canadians’ collective memory.
Working against this history, Aportia Chryptych: A Black Opera for Portia White is a bold, new Black opera that sets out to reclaim Portia White’s story, evoking memories of the past as a form of political resistance. Spoken word, rap, folk songs, hip-hop, R&B, and classic opera repertoire collide in an explosive score that seeks to break down musical silos and unite artistic and cultural communities. Aportia Chryptych is an original Canadian Opera Company commission, created by director/librettist HAUI with composer/conductor Sean Mayes and starring Canadian soprano Neema Bickersteth, Emmy Award winning-soprano Adrienne Danrich, and Juno-nominated singer-songwriter SATE.
