Can an old epic stand new twists?
An hour spent listening to classic texts!
We’ll hear from award-winning composer Stephen Dickman who revisits Gilgamesh in his newest opera, premiering this week at La Mama E.T.C.. Syrian composer Abed Azrie also took on the adventurer’s tale, merging the past and the present, the East and the West in another stab at the story. And John walks us through the work of other composers who’ve written works based on classic texts
