Renowned pianist Sonya Lifschitz and vocalist and performance artist Christine Johnston come together for a bold reinterpretation of George Crumb’s Makrokosmos, Book 1. Blending recital, cabaret and performance art, this critically acclaimed work places Crumb’s zodiac inspired pieces within an imaginative Antipodean sound world. As Lifschitz conjures extraordinary sounds from inside the piano, Johnston’s eccentric Madame Lark performs with musical saw and overhead projector, creating a whimsical and unexpected performance where classical music, theatre and comedy collide.
