With Love and Fury is a series of musical settings to ten poems by Judith Wright. The sequence was conceived as both an album and a touring concert.
'The musical settings enhance the turmoil of conflict and destruction that bursts out of Wright’s words. The song cycle is dark and intense. The narrative alludes to a profound concern for the environment and our relationship with the land and its people – issues that Judith Wright felt strongly about during her life as a conservationist and an Aboriginal rights activist' (Daniela Kaleva. Australian Stage 3 May 2016).
The poems that comprise Love and Fury (in album order) are:
- 1. 'Late Spring' (Elena Kats-Chernin)
- 2. 'To a Child' (David Hirschfelder)
- 3. 'Sonnet for Christmas' (Paul Dean)
- 4. 'After the Visitors' (Andrew Ford)
- 5. 'The Surfer' (Katie Noonan)
- 6. 'Night after Bushfire' (Iain Grandage)
- 7. 'The Company of Lovers' (Paul Grabowsky)
- 8. 'Failure of Communication' (John Rodgers)
- 9. 'The Slope' (Carl Vine)
- 10. 'Metho Drinker' (Richard Tognetti)
