When Jessye Norman recordings were found
From fans they resonated loud
But they'd never her heard
As it had not her word
And the questions of ethics abound

I am also an opera singer, and thanks to various disabilities and circumstances, the world is being robbed of my Beethoven's ninth, because I'm a Bass with a breath capacity that Beethoven rarely got to work with if ever

Probably on the short list of everyone's great works for bass

A tenor can show off a little, But a good bass owns the piece

And then again there's #JessyeNorman, stealing the show without a solo

En 1989 #JessyeNorman n'était pas "racisée", elle était universelle. Née au pays de la Ségrégation, elle pouvait chanter la Marseillaise en bleu-blanc-rouge sans que des pisse-froids indigénistes tartinent 10000 signes dans Mediapart sur la « domination blanche ».
