Terence Blanchard brings “Fire Shut Up in My Bones” to Houston
Da Camera hosts the jazz trumpeter and composer with a presentation of music from his latest opera.
#Jockstraps and
#dragqueens are not what one would expect to see onstage at the
#MetropolitanOpera. Nor was the work a
#Black #composer until last year, when
#TerenceBlanchard became the first with
#FireShutUpinMyBones, based on the
#memoir by
#journalist #CharlesMBlow, who is openly
#bisexual. Now, Blanchard returns to the Met with
#champion another new work based on a
#truestory about a
#queer #Black #man.
