Bass-baritone Sir Willard White grew up as the son of a dockworker in Kingston, Jamaica. In 1968 he won a scholarship to study at the Julliard School. Since then, he's performed at the world’s major opera houses, recorded both opera and albums of folk songs, and received a knighthood. He joins us to talk about his current role in the Metropolitan Opera’s production of Janacek's From the House of the Dead.
