Opera Explained: Recitative

Join Isaiah Feken, Opera Colorado Baritone Artist in Residence, as he takes a deep dive into unpacking recitative. If you’re missing the opera house or the classroom, this video is a great way to scratch that theory itch! Recitative is so much more than fast singing! Sometimes structured and sometimes loose and free, recit helps the story unfold. If you’re a theory pro, stick around to dust off those chops. Class is in session! If you’re an opera newbie, join us as a passionate young opera singer shares his love for the music theory behind opera. Opera Explained is Opera Colorado’s new series, unpacking the world of opera.
