PJ's "Incidental Music" Score for Ibsen's Hedda Gabler

Post by soulfadelic »

Remember this?

This reviewer thinks the production is crap: http://theater.nytimes.com/2009/01/26/t ... 6bran.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I'm wondering if the score is available somewhere in sheet music form... I'm actually debating seeing this just to hear what it sounds like, and because I really like Ibsen in general. Don't have much time, as it ends March 29th.

I doubt the sheet music is available. You can click the "Audio slide show" on the review you listed to hear what it sounds like. Very White Chalk-like with electronic effects thrown in.

First time I've heard any of this. Given the chance I think I'd go just to hear more.

wait, this show is still running? i went and saw it last year in march when i went to the irving plaza show. i went just to hear the score (and seeing mary louise parker too)... the score only totaled to about 4-5 minutes. Part of it was just The Piano minus vocals. I think my ticket was like $120 to hear 4 minutes of music. That can be justified in some universe :lol:
if there's a want for something new, you might find me at the start, or where it ends for you.

I was going to say, a lot of times if a show gets to run long enough it improves - maybe you should go again!

But no, these reviews are over a year old. I'm pretty sure the show is long over.
