Event Description

Tales of Transatlantic Freedom is a glorious exploration of our global musical heritage. Out of the pain of the diaspora narrative comes the richness of spirituals, jazz, blues, gospel, opera, and the songs of Robert Burns.

From across oceans and centuries, this moving and awe-inspiring musical journey reminds audiences of our shared humanity, our cultural interconnectedness, and our potential for healing and true reconciliation.

Tales of Transatlantic Freedom is the creation of Andrea Baker, one of the most prominent mezzo-sopranos of our times, in collaboration with award-winning international composer Howard Moody, directed by John Paul McGroarty and produced by Yard Heads International.

Praise for Tales of Transatlantic Freedom:

"When Baker speaks about the stories of striving for freedom, she is entirely without guile. Her simplicity emphasizes her message – you could hear a pin drop through the thrall in which she holds the audience, spellbound. The range encompasses opera, folk, jazz and gospel. It’s fascinating to hear the changes in register and to see the effect on Baker’s movement as she prowls and shimmies across her arena. John Paul McGroarty’s direction ensures that the audience feels intimately connected to the music and the stories woven around the songs. The audience rose as one to their feet at the finale – this is a stunning piece of work and consider yourself lucky if you have a ticket. Simply amazing." - Musical Theatre Review
