Tiffany Townsend: Bringing the Joy of Jubilee to Seattle Opera

Have you ever witnessed the power of music to transcend time and connect us to our shared history? Soprano Tiffany Townsend, a rising star in the opera world, recently sat down with Trae Holiday on The Day With Trae to discuss her incredible journey and the upcoming world premiere of "Jubilee" at Seattle Opera on October 12th.


Townsend's story is a testament to the transformative power of the arts. From her roots as a classical pianist to her discovery of her operatic voice, she embodies the spirit of exploration and the pursuit of passion. As she shared, "Seattle Opera is not just one of those companies that are doing, like putting out the sameness. They're actually doing the work."


"Jubilee," a world premiere opera, tells the inspiring story of the Fisk Jubilee Singers, a group of students who toured the world after the Civil War, spreading their music and raising funds for their school. Townsend's enthusiasm for the production is infectious: "It's a good story that I think all of us should understand and know, because it's a part of our history." Don't miss this opportunity to witness the power of music and history come alive on stage.
