CONCEPT & MUSIC
Roberto David Rusconi
Stanley & Audrey Burton Theatre, Leeds 18 - 20 October 2018 7.30pm
Matinee 20 October 2pm
"Roberto Rusconi's music is an exciting range of melody, ambient sound, spoken French text and menacing other-wordy effects, like an intimation of birdsong or the strident breathing of a dinosaur. The connection between the musical and choreographic texts is intimate and complementary: Monin and Rusconi are real finds!"

"A powerful soundtrack composed by Roberto David Rusconi opens by setting an ethereal, monastic atmosphere and climbs to a cacophony to accompany the beastly acts of Odysseus and his men."
