The Assignment
COPUS – an acronym for Creation Of Peace Under Stars – is an ensemble formed in the late 1990s by poet Royal Kent and composer/pianist Wendy Loomis. Together they created a body of positive spoken word and beautiful music that has inspired
people around the world. Royal passed away in October 2024. These are his unpublished lyrics read by 6 poets and surrounded
by Wendy’s piano pieces. “The Assignment” were the last words
Royal spoke on this Earth. With love & gratitude.
