Taro Yasuno, Miho Watanabe, Noriyuki Kiguchi et al.
The Danse Macabre, or Dance of Death, is an old cultural trope where Death summons everyone, no matter their station in life, to the grave. This classic leitmotif that reminds us all of the universality of death has appeared in a wide range of art and literature in Europe since the Middle Ages. Now it becomes a “zombie opera”. Utilizing the remarkable so-called “zombie music” of Taro Yasuno, with recorders, clarinets, and other instruments programmed to play automatically, music dramaturge Miho Watanabe and theatre director Noriyuki Kiguchi also collaborate on this unique interdisciplinary experiment.
