Her most famous piece is “Hymn of Kassia” AKA “Troparion of Kassiani”, which is one of around 50-70 pieces attributed to her but as with all Early music the attribution gets a bit fuzzy at times. This piece is heavily associated the “Holy Wednesday” (the bargaining of Judas as a spy amongst the disciples)

First up is a collection of hymns and recitive chants written and composed by Kassia (https://youtu.be/nTGELv1dJZM?si=v0m4_GU7RHN-at98), who was a Byzantine-Greek Composer, Hymnographer, Eastern Orthodox Christian Abbess and Poet. Similar to Hildegard of Bingen (1098–1179), Kassía’s work was not given its proper place in musical history until fairly recently.
