Acclaimed filmmaker Penny Woolcock writes and directs her first piece for radio... starring hip hop artist Sway and soprano Claire Watkins. Sway plays a rapper called Y.T. who falls in love with soprano Gabrielle. He hears her singing Puccini backstage, and is smitten. Sway has written music especially for the piece: in two of the tracks he's mixed his own beats and lyrics with soprano Claire Watkins' vocals. Hip hop meets high notes! You can hear the opening here:
