Cassandras Stimme – Visionen und Warnungen vor dem Untergang aus älterer und jüngerer Vergangenheit | zamus: early music festival 2026

In the organizer's words:

tiefsaits
Anna Reisener, Alma Stolte, Mirjam-Luise Münzel - violoncello
Yongbeom Kwon - countertenor
Daniel Trumbull - harpsichord, organ

The voices that have been predicting the devastating consequences of man-made climate change for decades seem like the cries of the ancient seer Cassandra, who warned in vain of the fall of Troy. The countertenor Yongbeom Kwon, Daniel Trumbull on harpsichord and the trio tiefsaits combine Benedetto Marcello's Cassandra cantata with voices of the climate movement from the last 50 years.

Benedetto Marcello (1686-1739):
"Cassandra. Cantata for alto and basso continuo
Sonata in B flat major for 2 violoncellos and basso continuo
Sonata in C minor for 2 violoncellos and basso continuo
Ciaconna
