Description

Explore the evolution of sound and music within one of the world's most influential theatrical laboratories. This book examines the Royal Shakespeare Company's development of music composition and sound design practices since 1961. Through a study of various productions, it tracks how musical practices have changed as composers and musical directors integrated new technologies with historical traditions. Readers will gain insight into how different interpretations of plays across multiple iterations reveal shifting styles, genres, and working contexts. The text covers the quiet practice of actor musicianship and the changing role of the sound designer in modern theatre. This study provides a detailed look at the technological and professional transformations that have shaped the sonic landscape of the RSC from Macbeth to Matilda.
