The Texas Heart Institute and Houston Methodist will co-sponsor an opera that tells the story of a heart transplant. Breath of Life is presented by Lone Star Lyric, with music by Todd Frazier, Center for Performing Arts Medicine Director at Houston Methodist Hospital, and Libretto by Michael Remson.
Inspired by his childhood experiences in the Texas Medical Center, where his father, Dr. O.H. Frazier, is a heart surgeon, Frazier’s opera tells the story of heart transplant patients, families, and doctors. Through music and storytelling, Frazier highlights the emotional and spiritual journey of those involved in the transplant process.
Breath of Life explores themes of guilt, sacrifice, the spirit of giving, and the transformative power of organ donation.
