With Love and Fury is a collaborative studio album by British string quartet the Brodsky Quartet and Australian singer songwriter Katie Noonan. The album has been described as a fusion of their styles into an incredibly composed and creative collaboration.[1]
The album is a reimagining of the words of Australian poet Judith Wright and features compositions from contemporary Australian composers including Carl Vine, Elena Kats-Chernin, Richard Tognetti, Iain Grandage, Andrew Ford, David Hirschfelder, Paul Grabowsky, Paul Dean and John Rodgers.
The project combines several of Noonan's passions; contemporary Australian composition and the work of iconic Queensland poet Judith Wright. The title, With Love and Fury, is named after the manner in which Wright habitually signed off her letters. Noonan said that "The idea was born from a love and deep appreciation of Judith Wright's writing and the legacy she left for Australia that seems so pertinent today" ... "She was such an advocate for the environment and also such a fierce supporter of reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians."[2]
The Brodsky Quartet and Noonan toured the album around Australia from 28 April until 5 May 2016.[3][4]
At the ARIA Music Awards of 2016, the album was nominated for Best Classical album, losing to Live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra by Flight Facilities.
