**Ensemble Fioritura**’s concert explores evolving cultural perspectives on gender identity and queer life by juxtaposing two newly composed song cycles—each featuring six sonnets by **Shakespeare** and 2021 National Poetry Competition winner **Eric Yip**. These works are brought to life by **Keith Pun**‘s gender-defying countertenor, praised by **The Guardian** in a 5-star review of his recent *Royal Opera House* debut for the ‘brilliance’ of his ‘multiple modes in his soaring voice.’

The performance will be followed by a short talk and Q&A session, offering audiences the opportunity to engage with the artists and composer in a discussion about the music, its exploration of gender identity and queer life, and the creative process behind these thought-provoking song cycles.
