Under the Spotlight: LGBTQ+ Awareness & Representation in the Arts
Friday Feb 26, 2021
Friday Feb 26, 2021
In this special podcast episode, we celebrate LGBTQ+ awareness month (February 2021) and discuss LGBTQ+ awareness and representation in the arts.
In this lively conversation, we are thrilled to be joined by three wonderful panellists:
Mezzo-soprano Jamie Barton who, in 2019, lit up the Last Night of the Proms as well as being named Personality of the Year by the BBC Music Magazine Awards. Jamie has also received the Richard Tucker Award, and won the BBC Cardiff Singer of the World competition (both main and song prizes).
Edwin Outwater is a conductor, curator, producer, and all-around polymath. Edwin is Music Director at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, and has collaborated with the likes of celebrated drag artist Peaches Christ, and heavy metal bands, such as Metallica.
Christina Scheppelmann is one of only two women heading up a major opera company in the United States. She is currently General Director of Seattle Opera. Christina has worked in Milan, San Francisco and Washington, and was the first General Director at the Royal Opera House in Muscat, Oman.
This is the first episode in our 'Under the Spotlight' podcast mini-series where we shine a light on 'hard' topics in the arts, and focus on guests living these experiences and who are working to create change in the sector.
This episode is hosted by HP’s Henry Southern
