Terence Blanchard’s jazz-inflected opera CHAMPION was the first opera by the seven-time Grammy Award-winning composer and depicts the double-life of closeted boxer Emile Griffith, from his arrival in New York City from the U.S. Virgin Islands to his rise from hatmaker to world-champion prizefighter to the tragic moment that he killed his opponent in the ring – an act that haunted him for the rest of his life.
