On Saturday, March 19, 2022, Houston Grand Opera (HGO) will stage the third annual Giving Voice concert, a special celebration of opera’s diverse artists that has become a beloved company tradition.
 | 
 

Giving Voice was created by Lawrence Brownlee, one of the world’s most sought-after tenors, in 2020, and has since been replicated by other companies. The popular series showcases the diversity of opera artists while seeking to attract diverse audiences to the art form.
 | 
The first Giving Voice, which featured a spectacular group of Black opera stars singing a mix of arias, popular songs, spirituals, and gospel, was a sold-out triumph. The second concert, which HGO livestreamed as part of the inaugural HGO Digital season, provided hope and healing when HGO was unable to perform for live audiences. And now, the third Giving Voice will bring the best of both worlds: an incredible live performance that also will be streamed for free as part of HGO Digital season two.
 | 
This year, for the first time, the concert will showcase the talents of both Black and Asian opera artists, with celebrated soprano Nicole Heaston as host and vocal soloist, performing alongside baritone Blake Denson, mezzo-soprano Sun-Ly Pierce, bass William Guanbo Su, bass Peixin Chen, countertenor Key'mon W. Murrah, and bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green, with Kevin J. Miller and Bin Yu Sanford playing piano. The program will include arias, spirituals, Broadway hits, Mongolian folk songs, and more.
 | 
The Giving Voice concert will stream through April 18 on Watch.HGODigital.org.
