 Cressida : Cressida - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Cressida was known as a British progressive rock group for the obvious reason that this is exactly what they were, but this album shows what set them apart from most of the competition -- they were fun.
The songs may have been serious and complex, and the mix of organ and Mellotron with classical-style acoustic guitar and melodies derived from classical and folk traditions may have intersected with the Moody Blues and King Crimson.
Yet, for all of that accessibility, there's nothing art rock-lite about Cressida -- this band plays hard and works at it; the resulting album is simply polished in all the right ways and inventive in the most accessible way imaginable.

Cressida's father (of Greece) wants his daughter Cressida back and Agamemnon is willing to give Troy back their Anteor in return.
Troilus and Cressida is one of Shakespear`s many romances, and, like most of his romances, is a tragedy.
Cressida, however, is the daughter of a Greek sympathizer(if that is the correct word)and may not be able to honour her commitment to the Trojan prince...

 Cressida [www.progweed.net]
Cressida is one of the quintessential bands from the early British symphonic prog scene.
The band's style is certainly not quite as developed or unique as it would come to be, there is less instrumental interplay and the compositions are not as ambitious or complex.
Still, Cressida is great for what it is. The tracks on the whole are shorter and more focused, heavily built around subtle song craft and a typically exquisite melodic sense.

 Amazon.fr : Troilus and Cressida: Livres en anglais: William Shakespeare,Kenneth Muir   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
One of Shakespeare's most notoriously difficult and cynical plays, labelled a "Problem Comedy", Troilus and Cressida has perplexed critics and theatre directors, and after Shakespeare's lifetime it was not performed again until 1907.
In many ways the play's difficulty is a surprise; the story of Troilus and Cressida was a popular theme, drawn from Homer's Iliad and Chaucer's own Troilus and Criseyde, as was its classical setting, the Greek siege of Troy, led by Agamemnon, Achilles, Ajax, Diomedes and Ulysses.
His love is intense and frenetic--"I am giddy, expectation whirls round me," but turns to bitter disillusion when Cressida defects to the Greek camp and flirts with Diomedes.

This two CD set combines the albums Cressida (1970) and Asylum (1971), which were originally released on the "progressive" Vertigo label.
Although I am reluctant to describe Cressida as prog rock, their music is somewhat adventurous in its approach and as such, the group sits comfortably alongside other early English bands such as Spring, Gracious, and Beggars Opera.
The music on the first Cressida album is a melodic and sometimes brooding mix of classical, folk, jazz, and rock styles with pretty good vocals spread over 12 short tracks.

 Theatre for a New Audience: Troilus and Cressida
Any production of this challenging and disturbing play is noteworthy, as it is so rarely performed, but one directed by Sir Peter, who, among his many other achievements, was one of the founders of the Royal Shakespeare Company, certainly should not pass without comment and consideration.
The play speaks powerfully to a modern sensibility; indeed it may be part of what has formed it.
We have come to see Troilus and Cressida as a play profoundly about war: why it is fought, how it is justified, and what it costs both its winners and losers (if the difference can in fact be discerned).
