This title refers to both a solo lecture recital and a dance theatre performance. In the solo performance John Kenny tells the story of the rediscovery of the carnyx and how it fits into the world history of “lip-reed” instruments from prehistory to the 21st Century. During the performance he plays all of these instruments.Photo of JK with instruments
The dance theatre production was premiered on the island of Malta, and is a dramatic realisation of the story told in the lecture recital, but with a poetic script by John Purser and composed music by John Kenny, with percussion, dance, light and sound projection. Photo dancce
