Spitalfields Festival: Brothers Quay's Street of Crocodiles
The Spitalfields Festival presents a production that brings together elements of film and contemporary music in a disarming and thought-provoking event.
London Contemporary Orchestra showcases three unique musical mavericks. Radical filmmakers the Brothers Quay's Street of Crocodiles is accompanied by Lech Jankowski's score. Parallel worlds are also the theme of Claude Vivier's Zipangu, referencing the island that Kubla Khan sought to conquer, and which to the composer represents 'the symbol of immeasurable wealth, lying just out of reach.' Schnittke's Concerto Grosso No.1 skilfully fuses the disparate styles of baroque, modern and the banal into an essay on the subversion of conventions, constantly wrong-footing the listener.
Experience this unique production at London's Spitalfields Summer Festival 2010.
