Description
Harrison Birtwistle based his full-length one-act piece on traditional county fair entertainment, working together with American pianist Stephen Pruslin, a long-time London resident. Composer and librettist created a stylised and ritualistic theatre piece in which the aggression and violence of the traditional material and Punch’s love for Pretty Polly are juxtaposed. Birtwistle’s music is a tour de force from the outset; Punch’s smile is simultaneously a terrifying grin, a father’s tenderness towards his baby is a murderous gesture as he throws the infant into the fire.
