Mezzaterra

This event is part of Tête à Tête: The Opera Festival 2022

‘Mezzaterra’, a song cycle of eight songs based on themes of culture and identity, was written in 2021 by Camille Maalawy and Mark Slater to explore Camille’s British-Egyptian heritage.

The piece examines concepts of travel, wandering, being an outsider, a foreigner – issues that are as powerful and relevant today as they were in pharaonic times.
