Ten years following the tragic death of his sister, opera star

honours her memory and comforts those who are in grief.

Houston Grand Opera, composer Jake Heggie sets poetry by
Margaret Atwood in a moving musical work that speaks out
against domestic violence. Music of Sibelius balances the
program with works of sublime beauty and pastoral comfort.
