Three opera recordings by Black creatives are available to stream now! . . . #blackoperadatabase #blackopera #blackoperasinger #blackcomposers #blacklibrettists . . . First is Complications in Sue written by Librettist Michael R. Jackson. Complications in Sue pieces together one woman’s existence across ten decades, each scored by a different composer. Composers include: Andy Akiho, Alistair Coleman, Nathalie Joachim, Missy Mazzoli, Nico Muhly, Rene Orth, Cécile McLorin Salvant, Kamala Sankaram, Dan Schlosberg, & Errollyn Wallen. Second is The Suite from Loving v Virginia by composer Damien Geter. Loving v Virginia tells the harrowing story of Richard and Mildred Loving, an interracial couple who married in 1958. Loving v. Virginia version preserves the opera’s central musical themes and dramatic arc- opening with the home theme and following many winding paths and challenges until Richard and Mildred finally return home in the end. Third is The Central Park Five by Anthony Davis and Richard Wesley. This Pulitzer Prize winning opera tells the story of five Black and Latino teenagers who were wrongly convicted in the 1989 rape and assault of a woman jogger in Central Park. In addition to streaming, Long Beach Opera is having a listening party on Monday, October 12th. Doors open at 7pm. Hear selections from the newly released recording and join the composer, librettist, and special guests for a conversation about the work, the story behind it, and the power of music to confront injustice. Happy Streaming!

“Borrowing from the past to push us into a really different future,” composer Nathalie Joachim reflects on a recurring theme in her work — and how scoring the nearly 100 year old film, The Flying Ace, allowed her to fully explore that idea. Learn more about the score’s premiere at JaxSymphony.org. #FlyingAce2026

First look: the score for The Flying Ace comes to life. 🎬🎶 Lead composer Carlos Simon, Jongnic Bontemps, Kathryn Bostic, Nathalie Joachim, Allison Loggins-Hull and Levi Taylor's music with the film was extraordinary. Under the baton of Music Director Courtney Lewis, this collaboration between six phenomenal composers is bringing a piece of Jacksonville history back to full, sweeping life. We cannot wait to share it with you on November 14. Tickets at JaxSymphony.org (Not pictured: Kathryn Bostic)

Retreat. Restore. Rebalance a women’s retreat of only six women on a secret wild barrier island of Florida. Come explore how to create stillness and cultivate joy within. Thu, Nov 12-16 Give yourself the time to rebalance. I’ll provide the tools, nourishment, movement, silence and space. We work with the elements to restore balance to body and mind—to soften, to ground, to remember the rhythms that are already within us. There are three spots left. Dm for details. And link in bio for a full description of day to day. #winterretreat #womensretreat #cultivatingjoy #findingcalm #thaimedicine
