Marc Almond - Ten Plagues Review and Music Video
Rating: 6/10 - Love and death during
the Great Plague
Playwright Mark Ravenhill
and composerConor
Mitchell’s song cycle
about the 1665 bubonic plague debuted
at the Edinburgh Festival in 2011 before
moving to Wilton’s Music Hall in Tower
Hamlets, East London. Written specifically
for Almond, it followed a year in the life of
a London-dwelling survivor and his struggle
to come to terms with the death of friends and
family, and the near destruction of his city.
Accompanied only by piano in this studio
recording, Almond has certainly been in
better voice, although he still manages to
bring enormous depth and poignancy to
Ravenhill’s libretto and its echoes of the
AIDS crisis.
