A Conversation with Edwin Vega: What’s Voice Got to Do With It? Part 2

Time with Edwin Vega, one very cool man with a great story to tell, is time well-spent...

At the tender age of 12, Edwin left home in Cleveland, Ohio for a boarding school in Hershey, Pennsylvania - and an ongoing adventure that weaves from singing in school choirs to operatic stages, from corporate training rooms to New York City, including a stop at the Grammys because, you know, that's just what happens... In this, Part 2 of our conversation, the inimitable Edwin takes us ever deeper into his work in diversity, equity and inclusion - including how, years after having left the world of opera, the world of opera circled back looking for Edwin - and his work. We take a peek at some historically wobbly legs beneath a beautiful, elegantly-set buffet table, discuss how love of country and dedication to systemic change are, in actuality and by necessity, mutually inclusive... And, of course, there's that Grammy Award!
