In its time, Pierrot lunaire was revolutionary, one of the first examples of expressionism in music and, because of its artistic complexity, remains a pearl rarely staged anywhere in the world.
Intoning the texts of the famous Belgian symbolist Albert Giraud, the voice of Baiba Bartkeviča interweaves with unusual rhythms and combinations in solos played on eight musical instruments.
