Masabane Cecilia Rangwanasha and Benjamin Bernheim

Opera lover Zeinab Badawi meet stars from the opera world who are seeking to make the art form fit for the 21st century. In this second episode, Zeinab meets two sublime young opera stars who are grappling with a new world of opera.

South African soprano Masabane Cecilia Rangwanasha believes black performers are more accepted in opera today than in previous decades, but she says that more still needs to be done. And Zeinab hears from French tenor Benjamin Bernheim who is worried about the impact of social media on young singers and fears streaming could devalue opera in the future.
