Faster Than Sound: I Burn for You
This is a Past Event and has been Archived.
After Dracula by Bram Stoker... ‘I Burn for You’ is an atmospheric new music theatre work inspired by Bram Stoker’s legendary vampire novel Dracula, created by composer Ian Wilson, librettist Joe O’Byrne and stage director Tom Creed. It brings together an astonishing line up of performers including the Hungarian death metal vocalist Attila Csihar (Mayhem, Sunn O))), and Void of Voices) – whose remarkable voice has been described as operatic – in the vampyric role. He is joined by virtuosic vocal improvisers Phil Minton and Elaine Mitchener, acclaimed musicians including saxophonist Cathal Roche, accordionist Ian Watson and electro-acoustic improviser David Toop, and video designer Jack Phelan. Pre-event talk with the artists Jerwood Kiln Studio, Snape 6.30pm. Admission free, but please book.
