- **Event Description**: The extraordinary life and visceral music of the murderous 16th/17th-century composer-prince Carlo GesualdoAbout this Event★★★★ “Daring and vivid psychodrama” - The Guardian​​​A collaboration project between The Telling and The Mancunium Consort. ​Clare Norburn’s acclaimed play with visceral music explores the extraordinary life of 16th/17th-century composer-prince Carlo Gesualdo.​After a childhood of privation with The Jesuits in preparation for a life in the priesthood, the unexpected death of Gesualdo’s brother leads to a sudden change of fate. Overnight, Gesualdo is now expected to produce an heir and is quickly married off to the world-wise Maria d’Avalos. Her cruel treatment of him leads inexorably to Gesualdo committing his infamous M**der of Maria and her lover.Rising star vocal group The Mancunium Consort play Gesualdo’s consort of singers: they control the “playlist”, providing a soundtrack of Gesualdo’s deeply personal and unconventionally expressive music, including his madrigals and monumental Tenebrae Responsories. Their singing triggers memories of his past, as Gesualdo contemplates the tumultuous events that led to the M**der. Now facing death and eternal damnation, the only thing that can save him is to face up to what happened that night 23 years before.​The drama is directed by BAFTA-nominated director, Nicholas Renton.Actor TBC.Doors open 7pm. Each half will be approx 40-45mins with an interval.This performance is supported by The Foyle Foundation, The Marchus Trust, The Radcliffe Trust, The Ida Carroll Trust and The Fidelio Charitable Trust.
