This was the first opera by Scott Joplin. It is about the 1901 White House dinner hosted by President Theodore Roosevelt for the civil rights leader and educator Booker Washington. Roosevelt receiving an uncommon level of criticism from his political opponents for entertaining the African-American leader. The score is lost. History tells us that the score was sized in lieu of non-payment of his bills.

During 1637 the Teatro San Cassiano, the first public opera house, opened in Venice. Before then opera was virtually the exclusive domain of the rich. Basically, you either had to be rich enough to put an opera on or to be in the small circle of people who would be invited to the performance. With the opening of the public opera house, opera was virtually accessible to every one, or at least the vast majority. A knock-on effect was that wider and bigger audiences and more performances meant the need for more operas and that encouraged composition. It also helped free the composers from the 'shackles' of patronage. Basically, before they had to compose what the rich patron wanted, now the aim was to fill opera houses.

The scores and parts of Puccini's operas are all in the public domain.

The term "spear carrier" generally refers to a non-speaking actor in a play, or non-singing actor in an opera, who is there in the background in crowd scenes, or maybe as an escort to one of the main players. The expression comes from historical drama where extras were dressed as soldiers and carried spears, or banners.

This happens a lot when people scream or yell. If you have ever gone to a football game or anything that involves cheering, and your throat feels strained afterwards... its because you (I don't want to say damaged) but hurt your voice. Or like when you hear a little girl scream so high pitch you have to cover your ears. A pitch like that is actually how high she/he could sing. It takes a while to sing that high and not feel the pain. You'd have to work up to singing that high again, if you don't work with it you'll end up straining it and then your voice will start to suck when you sing high much like mine. lol Remember, vocal cords can be damaged as easily as any other muscle. I used to be in choir, my pitch was so flat I dropped out. Anyway, that is what music lessons are for, I guarantee, at least one famous singer took voice lessons to get where they are now.
