Ensemble for the Romantic Century
Enseble for the Romantic CenturyEnsemble for the Romantic Century’s (ERC) unique productions merge dramatic and fully staged scripts with music, recapturing the past with a sense of immediacy that transports, illuminates, and captivates. The scripts, drawn from historical material create an intricate counterpoint to the musical program. The subject matters span across centuries, from Tolstoy to Toscanini, from Verne to Van Gogh, all brought to life through the fusion of drama and sound. We believe that one can understand Freud more deeply by listening to the erotic cabaret music of fin de siècle Vienna, that one can appreciate Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata more profoundly by listening to him speak of his tortured love life and his debilitating deafness. By illuminating the interplay between literature, biography and music, we transform the concert experience.
The Romantic Century was about imagination and experimentation. Elevating the human condition through art: that is the spirit we hope to summon. For more information, please visit their website.
