Nashville, TN (January 5, 2024) – Nashille-based pop singer/songwriter and reigning Miss Music City, Cassandra, recently released her new “Popera” single called “Queen of Every Night.” You can listen to the song HERE!
“Popera” is a new genre, blending opera and pop music together to create a new experience of music – by sampling opera arias, layering them on pop tracks, and writing and recording a pop song over the top of that track – that appeals to mainstream listeners.
With alluring lyrics like ’cause the way my hair flips when the bass hits wraps you up like diamonds in my necklace, “Queen of Every Night” took inspiration from classical pieces like the “Queen of the Night” aria from Mozart’s “The Magic Flute” and Pachelbel’s Cannon in D, as well as pop elements from today’s hitmakers like Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande and Billie Eilish.
“Research has shown that Gen Z listens to significantly less classical music than older generations,” Cassandra explains. “In a world where pop music has been booming and the classical world seems to be ever-fading, a change was necessary. Popera has the ability to change the music world as we know it!”
In addition to releasing new music, Cassandra is currently singing with the Nashville Opera as a soprano ensemble member in Mozart’s “The Magic Flute.” She is also a lead soprano in Nashville Opera’s Opera on Wheels program.
