Happy Wednesday! This week in our Women on Wednesdays series: Korean-American soprano Hei-Kyung Hong. She is at the height of a career that has taken her to many of the world’s operatic capitals in an enormous variety of roles ranging from baroque to contemporary works. Following a remarkably successful debut at the Metropolitan Opera in 1984 as Servilia in La clemenza di Tito, she has gone on to sing over 350 performances at the Met in an artistic relationship spanning 30 years and counting, including the great Mozart roles Ilia, Pamina, Despina, Zerlina and both the Countess and Susanna; Cleopatra in Giulio Cesare; Puccini’s Mimì and Lauretta; Gilda in Rigoletto and Liù in Turandot (both opposite Luciano Pavarotti); Gounod’s Juliette; Micaëla in Carmen; Antonia in Les contes d’Hoffmann; Adina in L’elisir d’amore; Marzellina in Fidelio; Rosina in John Corigliano’s The Ghosts of Versailles; Eva in Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg; and Freia in Das Rheingold.

Winter Opera St. Louis

This week in Women on Wednesdays, we wanted to focus on a female stage director. And there are some incredible directors out there (special acknowledgement to those we have had here at Winter Opera: Allyson Ditchey, Marie Allyn King, Corinne Hayes and Audrey Chait.) But we wanted to change it up this week and focus on why don't we know more about these wonderful female directors, or see more of them working at major opera companies?

"There is no hard statistical data on the numbers of male vs. female stage directors in the opera world, but anecdotal accounts and even a cursory glance at current major productions reveals that more men are stage directing than women, at least at the larger companies in the U.S. Why is this?"

We hope you will click to read more about this fascinating issue: https://www.post-gazette.com/ae/music/2018/10/04/women-stage-director-gender-opera-Pittsburgh-resident-artist/stories/201810030139
