- Description
- De auteurs gaan na hoe en waarom diva's zoveel publiciteit opgeroepen hebben vanaf de 18e eeuw tot heden. Ze beschrijven de rol van de diva in mannelijke, feministische en homoseksuele verbeelding en de hoe en waarom popzangers als Madonna, Annie Lennox en Diamanda Galas expliciet flirten met en beantwoorden aan het beeld van de vrouw met een stem.

- Ethel Waters (1896-1977) overcame a disadvantaged childhood to become the most famous African American actress, singer, and entertainer of her time. Having triumphed in black vaudeville during the Harlem Renaissance, she moved to Broadway in the mid 1920s. She brought much of the innovative character of black theatre into the mainstream and was almost immediately acclaimed by white critics and audiences alike. In this biography, Bourne documents her career, and tries to explain her influence and popularity. The book includes a transcript of an interview with Waters on Britains BBC Radio 4, a list of films, theaters, etc. in which she performed, and a list of her songs..

- Stephen Bourne is one of Britain's leading authorities on black history. In this biography he portraits the American born Elisabeth (Lis) Welch (1904-2003) as one of the most popular singers working in Britain. Born of mixed parentage, she also was a trailblazer for black women in Britain in the 1930s and 1940s. The emphasis of the book is on her work. In 1923 she launched the Charleston, and throughout the Jazz Age she was associated with some of the great names of the Harlem Renaissance. Her career in English musical theatre lasted sixty years. Later in life, she appeared in Derek Jarman´s 1979 film version of Shakespeares ´The Tempest´. Includes a list of performances and appearances in the media, and a discography.

- Description
- Calling this book 'the autobiography of my voice,' soprano Fleming details the years of study it took to master the art of vocal production and the discipline that brought her international renown. A former manager deemed her 'the single most ambitious singer he has ever known,' and given the tenacity with which she faced early setbacks—'I have a noble history of being rejected from a lot of places,' she writes—his comment is understandable. After her first big break in 1990 (as the Countess in Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro with the Houston Grand Opera), Fleming's rise to the top was steady. But she's quick to point out that the life of an opera star is not always glitter and glamour: the business side of singing—scheduling performances, arranging interviews and recordings, choosing a repertoire and marketing herself—is arduous.
