Opera Rara 2019 | Reportage | Cassandra & Just

A story of war, destruction, death and mourning, as well as love, longing and community. A clash of a Baroque cantata based on excerpts from Homer's Iliad and Euripides' dramas, summarising the Trojan War, as well as Just – a choral song referring to the biblical Song of Songs and touching upon the difference between “you” and “I” in an act of love. Cassandra & Just serves as a sign of all times – after the wars waged by men, in the name of men’s affairs, after not listening to women’s warnings comes the time to mend this mutilated world exclusively by women.
