Composer Gareth Williams and writer Martin O’Connor weave personal testimony into rich and heartfelt songs, celebrating those who have taken part in this ground-breaking arts and health project, which was first developed by Scottish Opera in 2012 to work with cystic fibrosis patients and relaunched in 2020 to offer support to people struggling with the debilitating effects of Long COVID.
Breath Cycle provides participants with gentle vocal training and breathing exercises, designed to rebuild physical and mental resilience in a nurturing environment. This evening of live performance takes the audience on an emotional journey through personal stories, led by Gareth Williams and performed by musicians and singers including Admiral Fallow’s Louis Abbott, operatic tenor David Douglas and musical theatre star Kirsty Findlay, accompanied by violin, cello and piano.
Audiences can expect a celebration of personal creativity, musical entertainment and a welcoming setting to learn more about the ground-breaking work of Breath Cycle.
