IMMACULATE PERCEPTION
| IMMACULATE PERCEPTION is a ground breaking album of music and poetry. Inspired by the energy and intensity of the poetry, the composer Mark Leventhall has written a contemporary and diverse blend of orchestral and electronic music that is not just a background for the poems but an active force. The Russian poetry is beautifully recited by Alicia and the poet himself Vitaly Kalpidi. Kalpidi's work has won top literary awards including the Apollon Grigoriev prize and the Best Book of the Decade.The album was featured at the 2001 International Poetry Festival in Moscow and in January 2002 at the Academgorodok (Academic's Town) of the Academy of Science in Novosibirsk. It has been presented in theatres, clubs, universities and art galleries throughout Russia. The English premiere was held at the Pushkin Club in London and to quote Richard Mckane "it was the outstanding event of my chairmanship."Presentations include a documentary about the making of the album by the London film company Visual Voodoo and a screen show of spectacular graphics by the St Petersburg artist Vyacheslav Ostapenko. | ||
