| ‘Soundtrack’ of Heiner Goebbels’ massive music theatre piece, “Landscape With Distant Relatives” – ‘an opera in the full sense of the term’ - recorded at Paris’s Festival d’Automne, incorporating texts by Gertrude Stein, Giordano Bruno, Henri Michaux, T.S. Eliot and Nicolas Poussin, and drawing on the services of actor-speaker David Bennett, baritone Georg Nigl, 16 further singers and 19 instrumentalists. The non-linear storyline embraces the ambiguous relationship between art and reality and the nature of political conflict. “The consistently gripping score runs the gamut of styles from Renaissance tonal tapestry (incorporating early instruments) to teeth-baring aggression – including an army of drummers raising merry hell.” (Rob Cowan, The Independent) |
