Description
Award-winning musician Paul McLaney's "Play On" transforms Shakespeare's famous soliloquies into a contemporary song cycle. This innovative album features 11 tracks performed by top New Zealand vocalists including Esther Stephens, Julia Deans, and Laughton Kora, backed by skilled musicians and The Black Quartet. Originally a sold-out live performance at Auckland's Pop-up Globe Theatre in 2016, the project brilliantly marries 400-year-old texts with modern musical composition.
