Last week Sound Energy revived Marti Epstein's "Hero and Leander" (1992) for string trio and puppet theater in a live performance at Seully Hall at The Boston Conservatory, 22 January 2018, working closely with the composer and with shadow puppetry by Deniz Khateri.
Click below for video of two short excerpts from the production:
Scene Two (Night falls. There is no moon. Leander swims through the sea towards the light in the tower which is Hero's Room.)
Scene Four (Leander tries to swim through the stormy sea to be with Hero. He cannot see the light in the tower which guided him before. Eventually, Leander drowns. Morning comes. The rain subsides. Hero still waits.)
You can also find the complete performance here.
