Join soprano Lizzie Holmes and Spanish piano improviser Sam Peña as we go on a musical journey through the world of classical music and opera with live performances and behind the scenes gossip. Whether you're a fan, or keen to learn more, we'll have fun exploring the remarkable lives and music of some of the world's greatest composers.

DEBUT was founded in 2015 to bring together brilliant musicians and share classical music in a more intimate and less formal way. With all our regular concerts cancelled, we wanted to create an online project to try and bring a little happiness and purpose to our days, continue to share stories from our favourite musicians and connect with our audiences.
