Macbeth (Sciarrino)

Macbeth: tre atti senza nome is an opera by Salvatore Sciarrino that received its premiere in Frankfurt in 2002 in a production by Achim Freyer. Although the work is based on endless permutation of a few simple recitation-figures, Sciarrino worked on the opera for 25 years.

gollark: You forgot to handle <img> also.
gollark: How does it handle errors generally?
gollark: I mean, most of the validator warnings *are* just "not allowed in this context" and it's harder to process that standards-compliantly than to ignore it, but still.
gollark: My site is designed to work okay with no/old JS and >=IE11 CSS, but many things aren't, and I only test for firefox.
gollark: Oh, and half the stuff on the web uses JS... good luck with that.

The Guardian Review "Rather than large-scale grand guignol, Sciarrino's Macbeth becomes a fragile chamber opera, in which the singers and the instrumental ensemble share an intimate, almost symbiotic relationship, with vocal lines often punctuated by just a single instrument. The elusive soundworld, often on the edge of audibility, is instantly recognisable as Sciarrino's, a wonderfully consistent and compellingly obsessive creation that retains the power to shock and surprise."
