THE SIRENS

on Network Three

A dramatic poem by Francis Berry with music by TRISTRAM CARY
What song the Sirens sans, said Sir Thomas Browne , is ' not beyond all conjecture.' The author of Illnesses and Ghosts at the West Settlement offers the answer to this ' puzzling question.' in which an immortal and now modern Ulysses recalls his Homeric experience. with JAMES BLADES and TRISTAN FRY (percussion) GRANVILLE JONES (Violin) JOHN MARSON (harp)
Produced by CHRISTOPHER HOLME
