My Life is Simple from The Second Sight by Jessie Downs

An excerpt from The Second Sight by Jessie Downs - a new opera premiered by Sotto Voce in 2021. This virtuosic duet is performed by Julia Anne Cordani (as Freyaria) and Beth White (as Diskana). In this scene, Freyaria welcomes Diskana to her home and shares with her a sunny view of her simple life in the woods. All the while, Diskana is searching her mind for the reason why she cannot shake a sense of foreboding and despair.
This video was recorded live at "Incantations" on October 20th, 2023 at the UU Church of Buffalo.
