Obrovac, Tamara: & Stefano Battaglia: APOXYOMENOS recomposed

The music project Apoxyomenos recomposedis based on the pieces which Tamara Obrovac composed for the Croatian National Theatre in Zagreb’s ballet Apoksiomen in 2017. Stefano Battaglia reharmonised Tamara’s compositions which acquired their final form during their team work in Siena, at the Accademia Musicale Chigiana in the autumn of 2022 and 2023, when they were also recorded. The tragedy the Trojan Women which, with its theme of war and exile, unfortunately also corresponds to the modern times, evokes emotions such as sorrow, hopelessness, grief, abandonment, hope, nostalgia, resignation, unrest and revolt.
