The Opera Hour – series 2/episode 16

Opera singer Richard Scott explores opera through the prism of various themes – politics, power, greed, the abominable, magic, lust, comedy.
Today opera singers Jean Rigby and Joanna Songi discuss their roles in Glyndebourne’s latest community opera, Imago by Orlando Gough, an opera set in the world of online gaming, where Joanna plays Jean’s younger avatar, in an attempt to bring comfort, friendship and love into the lives of the residents of a care home for the elderly.
