The sound of a countertenor—often d escribed as ethereal and otherworldly—is both familiar and foreign. It i s a high voice close to what we might expect from a female opera singer. Though we recognize the range from contemporary pop music and cartoons\ , from Michael Jackson to Mickey Mouse\, experiencing its penetrating po wer unamplified in an opera house can be surprising\, elemental\, and pr ofoundly moving. In Countertenor\, Anthony Roth Costanzo\, one of the wo rld’s leading opera singers\, takes us on a journey through his life\, h is education in art\, and the history of his extraordinary voice type. C ountertenors\, he tells us\, have helped define contemporary opera for m ore than half a century\, having inherited a repertoire originally writt en for castrated men in the baroque period. Part oddity\, part divinity\ , the castrati were surgically altered before puberty. They are key to u nderstanding the development of opera as a form\, from its very origins to its expansion in the public sphere. The striking beauty and sheer oth erness of the high male voice provide fertile ground for creative invent ion and innovation\, evocatively challenging conventional notions of gen der\, sexuality\, and identity. With wit\, humor\, and an irrepressible\ , irresistible energy\, Anthony Roth Costanzo offers fascinating insight s into the contours of the countertenor and his own extraordinary artist ic career as both an opera singer and a savvy producer and curator. The result is a lively and stirring account of an art form in flux\, in cons tant reinvention\, of the excitement of new\, boundary-pushing work\, an d of the development and triumph of a remarkable\, uninhibited voice. Cl ick here to purchase Anthony Roth Costanzo's book Countertenor (out Octo ber 27 via Farrar Straus\, and Giroux)\, and his companion album of the same name (out October 23 via Nonsuch Records).
