RIVERA - Scene Sixteen

"... Now, listen to me, and I will tell you what I know, as a critic, and a loyal supporter of your party and your cause. In art nothing is what it seems to be, but everything can be claimed. The painting is not independent, even if the artist is. The picture is retrievable, even when the painter is lost..."

GALACTIA - Scene One

"I tell you I would not, I do not trust beauty, it is an invention and a lie, trust my face..."

Edinburgh International Festival

Imperial Court Music and Dance of Japan

Performed by the Musicians of the Imperial Household Agency, Tokyo

"Gagaku is the world’s oldest living orchestral tradition. This music of unforgettable elegance and beauty dates back to 5th century Japan. Performed by a powerful ensemble of wind instruments, plucked strings and deeply resonant percussion, its slow-moving melodies and exquisite harmonies suggest a serene world of ancient ritual and contemplation." - programme note...
