'You! Who?' is a powerful and moving work by acclaimed New Zealand composer Anthony Ritchie that sets the evocative poems of Fiona Farrell to music. It traces the entire arc of a relationship. From the magic of a first meeting through the complexities of marriage, separation, reconciliation, and the finality of death, this piece captures a complete emotional journey in song.
This 2025 piece was written specifically for the performers on this recording: mezzo-soprano Tessa Romano and pianist Terence Dennis, who bring the work to life with deep understanding and artistry.
Recorded by RNZ Concert, Te Korokoro Studios, University of Otago, 17 August 2025
