Met Opera to present Blanchard's 'Champion' in April 2023

The Metropolitan Opera will present its premiere of Terence Blanchard's first opera, "Champion," about closeted gay boxer Emile Griffith, in April 2023 following the success of the composer's "Fire Shut Up in My Bones" on the opening night of this season. “Champion” premiered at the Opera Theatre of St. Louis on June 15, 2013. Blanchard and librettist Michael Cristofer intend to make revisions for the Met performances, which will be in a revamped version of the original James Robinson production. Met music director Yannick Nézet-Séguin, emphasizing 21st century music in his repertoire, will conduct a cast starring bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green as the young Griffith, bass-baritone Eric Owens as the retired boxer and soprano Latonia Moore as the boxer's mother. The Met will present its second work by a Black composer, Anthony Davis’ 1986 work “X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X,” starting Nov. 3, 2023.

More history-making is the fact that “Fire,” with a score by jazz trumpeter and composer Terence Blanchard, will be the first opera by a Black musician presented at the Met in its 138 years. That was not a popular look.”To write the libretto, Blanchard enlisted filmmaker Kasi Lemmons, his friend and frequent collaborator. She had never written an opera libretto, though she said it was on a “bucket list” of things she hoped someday to accomplish. The production is co-commissioned by the Lyric Opera of Chicago, where it will be presented next spring, and by LA Opera. But the thing that’s not sad is Charles Blow,” she said.
