The Prisoner of Chillon was written by Lord Byron and published 200 years ago. Carl Michael von Hausswolff and Christopher Chaplin decided to compose a soundtrack to the poem. They engaged several people to read the poem, including JG Thirlwell, Judy Nylon, Anna von Hausswolff, Carmen Alt-Chaplin, Marietta von Hausswolff von Baumgarten, Christine Martha Roedelius & Hans Joachim Roedelius. The result is a CD and chapbook which you can purchase here.
