This striking program brings together two visionary sound worlds across time. At its centre is Olivier Messiaen’s monumental Visions de l’Amen, performed by Coady Green and Marc Peloquin on two pianos – a vast, ecstatic meditation on creation, love, judgement, and eternity, composed in the shadow of the Second World War.
Framing this are works by Meta Cohen that give voice to prophecy in its most human form. Mezzo-soprano Jessica Aszodi joins Coady Green for Delphi Songs, a haunting cycle inspired by prophecy and the final Oracle of Delphi, whose voice foretold the end of her own sacred order, while Cohen’s new piano suite The Warning Never Heard reimagines the myth of Cassandra, condemned to foresee the future, yet never believed.
