Product details

Eliza Shephard is a vibrant and fearless flautist, a leading light in the Australian contemporary classical scene and an audience favourite across a wide range of art forms, from the concert stage to opera, theatre and dance. ABC Classic is thrilled to present her debut solo album, I Will Not Be Sad In This World.

This compelling recording reflects Shephard's belief in the power of music to sustain, connect and inspire. 'It's a poem to the world,' she says. 'It reflects my feeling that, amidst crisis, we will bond together to support one another through our struggles. Capturing moments of despair, hope, joy, fiery rage and bliss, this album traverses music that has shaped my career, resonated deeply with me in profound ways, and brought me comfort in trying times.

Duration: 75 min.
