Anthony Roth Costanzo is among a rare group of opera singers who, as countertenors, are able to sing in the same range as a female mezzo-soprano. He has sung a range of celebrated countertenor roles at many of the world’s most prestigious venues including the English National Opera, New York’s Metropolitan Opera, Glyndebourne, Opera Philadelphia and LA Opera - all the more impressive since he overcame thyroid cancer, with surgery that threatened his voice, to do so.

The film follows Costanzo‘s eagerly anticipated return to the English National Opera headlining in Phelim McDermott‘s Olivier Award-winning , cutting edge production of Philip Glass’s Akhnaten to sold out audiences at the London Coliseum and a few months later at the Metropolitan Opera.
