Edinburgh International Festival 25 August, 2007 Usher Hall
Wicked purveyors of black comedy, cult London vaudeville trio The Tiger Lillies take Monteverdi as an inspiration and run amok with him. Teaming up with Concerto Caledonia, The Tiger Lillies bring their unique perspective to the party, looking at Monteverdi’s music upside down and sideways. They have delighted and shocked audiences around the world with their slick, dark cabaret style, deranged comic madness and brazen theatrics. They have also impressed and surprised with the junk-opera Shockheaded Peter, which won them an Olivier Award. Their album The Gorey End inspired by the artist Edward Gorey and recorded with the Kronos Quartet, was also nominated for a Grammy.
Disc of the year .. everyone should own this
