Lyric Opera presents the opening event for their 2023 season – a concert of three major song cycles by three renowned Australian composers: Linda Kouvaras, Jane Hammond, and Anne Cawrse. Following Lyric’s exploration of the art song of Peggy Glanville-Hicks in 2022, this concert will continue to explore the work of some of Australia’s leading contemporary composers. Hosted by Lyric’s Artistic Director, Patrick Burns, this concert features Linda Kouvaras’s hugely powerful Art and Life, the only major classical work dealing with the subject of domestic violence; Jane Hammond’s award-winning Sea Voyage, telling the story of the ill-fated 1968 sea voyage of Donald Crowhurst; and Anne Cawrse haunting This Too Shall Pass.

This concert will be the launch of Lyric’s 2023 season and will feature three of Melbourne’s exciting vocal stars – Linda Barcan singing Kouvaras’ Art and Life, Bailey Montgomerie performing Hammond’s Sea Voyage, and Samantha Hargreaves in Cawrse’s This Too Shall Pass.
