Today's episode features opera singer Erica Wilens. She and I chat about where opera is now compared to what it used to be and why it's not as elitist as it is perceived to be. Erica provides additional insight as to what the art of opera looks like from the perspective of the singers and the best composers of opera from the singers' standpoint.
