Sing the Truth - Australian Exclusive

Angélique Kidjo, Dianne Reeves and Lizz Wright (USA)

An unstoppable, uplifting tour de force, Sing The Truth is a dazzling evening of passionate song that honours the music and spirit of the great women of music.

Angélique Kidjo, Dianne Reeves and Lizz Wright lead a remarkable ensemble in paying tribute to the women who have stirred their hearts and inspired their careers - Billie Holiday, Odetta, Abbey Lincoln and Miriam Makeba - along with more recent muses including Joni Mitchell, Ani DiFranco and Lauryn Hill. Sing The Truth will also, of course, feature original material from the three divine divas.

Developed from the tribute to Nina Simone (Sydney Opera House, 2010), Sing The Truth is an inspiring and powerful event.

“A spectacular show that clearly exhausted, surprised and thrilled its participants as well as its audience” The Guardian
