I am very pleased to announce that Cassandra is now available for listening on Spotify, Apple Music, Google Play, Tidal, Soundcloud or your favourite streaming service!

Performed by the sublime Monica Curro and Stefan Cassomenos, Cassandra confronts the great social issue of our time, climate change. Using the ancient story of Cassandra as metaphor, and inspired by Brian Walters’ poem Cassandra, the work warns of the terrible price of ignoring climate scientists. Apollo fell in love with Cassandra, giving her the gift of prophecy. When she refused his advances he inflicted on her a curse that no one would believe her prophecies. Cassandra predicted the fall of Troy and was ignored. Will we suffer the same fate as the Trojans?

You can find out more about Brian’s beautiful work at his website. Monica and Stefan perform with their extraordinary trio Plexus, relentlessly championing Australian composition.
