"This is not the end" (Chautauqua Opera Song Cycle) - Yazid Gray, baritone

A World Premiere Song Cycle for Chautauqua Opera 2020:
Over four days in early June, composer Frances Pollock and playwright and librettist Jerre Dye interviewed each of this season’s 2020 Chautauqua Opera Young Artists. Together they investigated the emotional and professional impact of the COVID-19 crisis, the isolation it has created for so many people around the world, and other current events. Drawing from and inspired by these interviews, Pollock and Dye created one a cappella song for each Young Artist. The resulting song cycle responds immediately to this unique moment in the world.
