This is an absolutely genius piece of music theater by the living composer Salvatore Sciarrino. It is a dark, psychological sort of retake on the Lohengrin story.
I suggest everyone read the text file inside: I was too lazy to type out the whole (italian) libretto but I typed out the rest of the liner notes. Makes it easier to understand for those not immediately predisposed to such uncompromising contemporary music.
Nice. I don’t know too much of Sciarrino’s music, but heard his viola studies a while back. Probably some of the most jaw dropping classical music I’ve heard so far. Electronic music on a viola, tru.
