Eidolon
If you rarely find yourself going outside the stock standard when it comes to musical performances, this show is definitely one that will have you patting yourself on the back for broadening your musical horizons.
Overview
Don't ask me how you pronounce this, I haven't a clue. I'd hazard a guess that it's a bit like eye-dough-lon, but I wouldn't back myself if it came to it. One thing I do know however, is that this show at the Basement theatre is one that will be a truly spine tingling experience.
It might be that I was made to be in the school orchestra when I was a kid, but I seem to have grown up with a sound appreciation for musical talent. And it's fair to say that Melbourne based cellist, Francesca Mountfort, has just that in abundance. Her show, Eidolon, has been described as an intimate and intriguing musical installation performance. With the use of multiple projections onto different objects, shapes and surfaces, the show really promises to be visually spectacular. The whole idea behind the performance is the collaboration of music and projection, playing with illusion, the poetry of rhythm and the cycles of life.
As a classically trained cellist, Francesca uses her skills with electronics and the history of classical music to fuse experimental, ambient and classical into an emotional and heartfelt sound scape. And that's not an attempt to sound waffly and poetic, the show has very seldom been described as anything other.
If you rarely find yourself going outside the stock standard when it comes to musical performances, I'd suggest you-tubing a few of Mountford's performances. It's definitely one that will have you patting yourself on the back for broadening your musical horizons.
