Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire is nothing short of a music theatre landmark. A strikingly significant work, it
launched the career of the Hebrides Ensemble some twenty years ago. Awestruck by its originality, Stravinsky hailed it 'the solar plexus of the 20th century'.
Pierrot is intoxicated by the moon. Alone in his disturbed
and insular world, he spirals into a violent nightmare
dominated by dark poetic imagery, descending further
into murderous and violent thoughts before returning
home, once more transfixed by the moonlight.
This programme includes works by Chopin, Debussy, Beamish and a brand new commission by young Scottish composer Helen Grime. PLEASE NOTE - Some of the poetry has sexual and violent imagery, which is not suitable for young children.
