Heras second album for Deutsche Grammophon is the deeply personal result of an existential confrontation of Hera's with the foundation of her being, resulting in her determination to embrace life: 'As I contemplated death, I found my soul infused with the magnificence of life. A profound sense of gratitude began to fill my soul'. Presenting operatic favourites by Massenet ('Meditation'), Delibes ('Flower Duet' w/ Emily D'Angelo), Humperdinck ('Abends wenn ich schlafen geh') side by side with contemporary works by Luke Howard, Cecilia Livingston, Hyowon Woo and Bernat Vivancos. A spectacular under water shot music video for 'While you live' accompanies the album release.
