'An excellent guide to an innovative, new body of work that has so far largely escaped scholarly attention: theatrical performances by classical orchestras. Adrian Curtin has deftly woven together interviews with key players, audience reactions, background research and his own critical responses to numerous performances by a variety of mostly British ensembles to craft a highly informed, profoundly perceptive and personal book.'
Björn Heile, Professor of Music (post-1900), University of Glasgow
>Orchestras are rethinking how they present music: attending to performance design, the creation of atmosphere, the configuration and choreography of bodies in space, audience experience, and the dramaturgy of the live event. They are collaborating in new ways with artists from other disciplines to create performances that challenge conventional understanding of the orchestra. This book focuses on the contribution of British music ensembles to these practices, analysing the theatrical aspects of their work in particular. It argues that increased attention to stagecraft along with cross-artform collaboration can reveal new aspects of orchestral music, allowing audiences to better appreciate its embodied, intersensorial qualities and narrative potential. The book delves deeply into performances presented by orchestras throughout the UK, examining the intersections between music and visuality, storytelling, physical movement, performance site, and audience immersion.
