The four "name" arias in HARRIET TUBMAN portray stages in the title character's transformation from slave to freedom-fighter.
"My name is Harriet, now. Don't call me Minty any more," declares the teenaged heroine. Having survived a series of abusive masters and a debilitating injury, she asserts her rites of womanhood through the shedding of her childhood moniker.
