Freddie Ballentine and Kunal Lahiry: Our People

Freddie Ballentine, tenor & Kunal Lahiry, piano: Our People

Grammy Award-winning tenor Freddie Ballentine has captivated audiences at the Metropolitan Opera, English National Opera, Washington National Opera and beyond with his powerful voice and dramatic depth.

Pianist Kunal Lahiry has earned acclaim for his performances at Wigmore Hall, Elbphilharmonie, the Kennedy Center, and more. The artists share a commitment to amplifying queer voices and stories, and they bring their compelling artistry and charismatic stage presence to this cross-genre program exploring Black and LGBTQ experiences through song. Arranged in pillars representing isolation, damnation, remembrance, and finally, revolution, and featuring music ranging from spirituals to songs by Copland, Ricky Ian Gordon, Schubert, Gershwin, Nina Simone and others, the concert takes listeners on a formidable journey, leaving them at their destination: hope.
