TONDAL'S VISION

New York City - February 18th
Corpus Christi Church, 4.00pm, "Music Before 1800", www.mb1800.org
Medieval Music Ensemble Dialogos (Paris, France)
Director : Katarina Livljanic
www.ensemble-dialogos.org

Six women's voices trace the path of TondalĂ­s soul, taken away from his body, following his angel on an initiatory voyage through hell before returning to earth. A performance of musical theatre built around one of the most popular visionary stories of the 12th century, in a reconstructed musical language between plain-chant and polyphony, based on the Glagolitic chant from medieval Dalmatia (with English subtitles).

Stage direction: Sanda Herzic.
