Description of work

A drama for trombone and orchestra, where Borisova-Ollas and Faingersh tell Shakespeare’s most famous tale. Soloist Faingersh ‘acts’ out the play on stage and interacts with both the musicians and the audience, translating the drama of the work into a musical dialogue with his co-performers.
