OSJ TALKS Moby-Dick with Noah Stewart and Ashraf Sewailam

On this episode, meet bass-baritone (and my long-time friend) Ashraf Sewailam. Making his debut in our opera house this summer, Ashraf performs the roles of The Speaker in THE MAGIC FLUTE and Ferrando in IL TROVATORE. He tells us about these characters and their significance in the overall story arc of the operas, as well as what it's like juggling the roles in rehearsal. We also get into the importance of education, his experience growing up in Egypt, his recent foray into directing, and how much Central City Opera means to him.  Have questions or want to provide feedback?
