In a new episode of the 3.55 podcast CHANEL at the Opera, the South-African opera singer Pretty Yende talks with French journalist and writer Virginie Mouzat. She tells the challenges of singing La Traviata for the first time in Simon Stone’s adaptation, what it means to be a black opera singer today, and the unfailing support of her #prettyarmy on social media.
