Dragon’s Tale

An Opera for 4 SATB Soloists, Choir and Orchestra

Dragon’s Tale is the story of a young Chinese/Canadian woman who must travel into the ancient past to

 answer questions about her own life and future in the modern world. By summoning the spirit of one of

 China’s greatest poets (Qu Yuan) she learns the significance of the ancient dragon boat festival of

 Duanwu and her family’s deep connection with Qu Yuan.
