Developed over time and created as part of its nurturing of Yorkshire talent, the show sees two opera singers speak and sing without artifice about a life-changing moment, with no support other than a solo violin. The heartfelt true stories about learning to embrace one’s ethnicity and coming to terms with newly-discovered siblings in Brazil are told by Yorkshire-based Mezzo Joanna Gamble and Bass-Baritone Neil Balfour, accompanied by Ellie Gaynard with music by HUO Artistic Director Russell Plows.
