A REVIEW

The Irish Philharmonic Singers’ Chiaroscuro. A stirring blend of light and shadow in music just as breathtaking as its namesake art. A celebration of artistry and passion for classical music!

Image shows the deaf community flag which is a blue hand with a yellow outline. The image has text over explaining the flag. The colour turquoise is the world colour of Sign language, Deaf culture, and the signing Deaf community. The infinite fingers allude to the projection of the use of Sign language in the world. They also symbolise the connection with the five continents.The colour yellow symbolises light, life, the awakened mind, coexistence.The hand represent the signing Deaf community and Sign language.The colour navy blue symbolises planet Earth, humanity, and is the colour adopted to represent deafness (represented by a blue ribbon).

So Oran & Rob just had a video call to discuss one of Orans opera ideas. These conversations are great but now Robs head is spinning with themes and lyrics! He probably won’t sleep tonight!
