A bunch of operas these days now use a fair amount of black singers even though those operas take place way back when and it seems to work. I can see if it is a period piece about race or something like that - then it wouldn't work, but if it's just a regular old period piece, why not? I think it makes things kind of interesting. Not exactly "authentic" - but I just want to see good- or interesting-looking people who are good actors - when it comes down to it, I don't think it matters what race they are.
