The event opens with Miss Donnithorne's Maggot which is musically and visually tamer than Eight Songs accented with black, white and bright-red lighting and highlighted with parts of a documentary film projected in the background. After a brief transition, Eight Songs delves deeper into detached lunacy. "It's more schizophrenic in every way: musically, lighting and range," says Scotting. "When you look at the written music, it's like you don't even know where to begin. It spans about four octaves vocally, which really requires the full range of your voice."
It's all happening tonight and tomorrow night at 7:30 p.m. in the ATLAS Black Box Theatre on the University of Colorado at Boulder campus. Tickets are $12 for adults and $7 for students. For more information, call 303-709-6074 or go to www.fusionchamber.org.
