HOW DARE YOU

A symphonic interpretation of Greta Thunberg’s speech addressed to the UN in 2019.

Collaborative, climate change-focussed photo-opera HOW DARE YOU was released during Global Climate Strike on Friday 23 September 2022, with kind permission of Greta Thunberg.

Photographed by Axel Martens (Die Zeit, Vogue, Vanity Fair, Süddeutsche Zeitung's revered Interviews Without Words series) with music by Mark Scheibe (Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, Volksbühne Berlin, ARTE Concert) and sung by mezzo soprano Rowan Hellier (Wigmore Hall: wom3n all female-composer recital for International Women's Day 2022).

HOW DARE YOU was premiered in concert form at the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg in February 2020, and morphed, over the two subsequent pandemic years, into a photo-opera.
