Composer Danaë Xanthe Vlasse follows the GRAMMY®-winning chamber album Mythologies (2021) with a sequel of epic proportions. Featuring the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Mythologies II offers orchestral tone poems highlighting sopranos Sangeeta Kaur and Hila Plitmann, tenor Omar Najmi, and pianist Robert Thies, as they embody iconic figures from Greek mythology.
The musical exploration of these myths demonstrates a nuanced perspective on the protagonists of ancient stories, which speak fundamental truths about the human condition and societal values. There is duality and complexity in each character, asking audiences to ponder how timeless archetypes fit into the modern world.
