Ryan Speedo Green in Conversation

Join us for a special evening with Grammy Award–winning bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green, currently starring in the title role of Don Giovanni at the Metropolitan Opera. In conversation with dramaturg Cori Ellison, Mr. Green will discuss his career, artistic path, and upcoming major roles, including King Marke in Tristan und Isolde, Crown in Porgy and Bess, and Wotan in Die Walküre.

Named “the real showstopper” by the New York Times, Green is one of opera’s most acclaimed bass-baritones, regularly performing at leading opera houses and orchestras around the world, including the Metropolitan Opera, Bayerische Staatsoper, and the Los Angeles Philharmonic. Known for both his powerful stage presence and vocal artistry, Green continues to expand his repertoire with critically acclaimed debuts in both classic and contemporary works.

Program Change: This event replaces the “Hitler’s Twilight of the Gods: Teutonic Aesthetics and the Statecraft of the Third Reich” book talk with author Alexandra Birch.

Livestream: the event will be livestreamed (viewable up to 36 hours after the start of the event). WSNY Members will receive livestream link automatically by e-mail; no need to pre-register.
