Donald Byrd, Artistic Director of Spectrum Dance Theater, has choreographed several productions for Seattle Opera over the years. Just before the pandemic began he made valuable choreographic contributions to CHARLIE PARKER'S YARDBIRD. General Director Christina Scheppelmann interviewed Byrd for a "Seattle Opera Mornings on KING FM" re-broadcast of his Seattle Opera debut, our 2007 production of Handel's GIULIO CESARE.
