Concert Overview
Just What Is It That You Want? - music by Dina Shilleh and Robin Burlton
Each of the five pieces in the concert delves into fractured facets of the mind and its emotional response; internal discourse, nagging frustration and indecision, unsolved dilemmas, argumentative logic, opposing positions and, as a salve for all of these, a fairy tale as balsam for its struggles. The music is written for different combinations of wind instruments, piano and voice and sets poetry by Zakaria Mohammed and inspiration from poet Ljubomir Vujović.
