With concert halls shut, one French mezzo-soprano decided to take her voice directly into people's homes as a way to stay connected, and has found herself performing to families, Alpine shepherds and a couple of cats.

Sat comfortably on their couch and surrounded by family, Genevieve and Jacques, both in their 90s, have a front-row seat for a very intimate performance.
