SYNOPSIS - back to top

Lean your ear to the earth, my dear.
Lean and listen, my love,
As I play my way to Hell, my dear,
While you lean and listen above.

A woven tapestry of European folk tales in which the violin is a central character - a violin that compels feet to dance, a violin made from the bones and hair of a lost lover - all life is here, and all told 'through wood'.
