This portrait follows soprano Reri Grist's dazzling career from Harlem via Broadway to the finest opera houses in Europe. Her beginnings as young black singer are contrasted with her life now as a teacher who has made it her role to impress upon young people that opera is acting as well as singing.

  • What a talent and beauty, and to think of the road she has taken, from the slums of NYC....

  • @Greekbaritone Other great artists do, such as the legendary Marilyn Horne.

  • BRAVISSIMA!!!!!!

  • Would that other artists, such as Battle, could find the time to continue in this same tradition of passing on such a wealth of experience, but then an artist endowed with Grist's generosity is truly rare....

  • thaaaaaaaaank you so much. i heard of Grist in a posting on a vid of Battle's. this is so absolutely amazing!! her voice is absolutely one of the greatest!! and the student in this clip is absolutely fabulous as well!!!

  • Pure Magic!!

  • @peagasuki: Her husband is German former Artistic Administrator of the Berlin Symphony so that probably helps and she does reside in Germany now.

  • SIMONE NOLD!!!! Du singst sooooo schön! Sorry, Ms. Grist, aber das gefällt mir persönlich sogar noch besser. Hast Du die Sophie schon irgendwo gesungen?

  • Une grande leçon de théâtre, un théâtre subtil et lumineux, loin de tout cabotinage. Bien des chanteurs actuels feraient bien de s'inspirer d'une telle leçon.
