"Splendid music." Ana Isakovic, Danas
"The music... has a very important role in emphasizing emotional
meanings and defining the play's rhythm. The songs, performed live
by the actors, are also momentous in deepening the emotional effect..."
Ana Tasic, Politika
In May 2010, Silence wrote a handful of songs for Metamorfoze
(Metamorphoses), an unorthodox, eclectic staging of Ovid's
homonymous narrative poem. The play marks the first collaboration between
Aleksandar Popovski - a prolific theatre and film director,
best known for his 1998 film Goodbye, 20th Century - and
Silence.
The play, a collage of unconventional love stories that are equally successful
in raising eyebrows today as they were in Ovid's times, features five songs
interpreted live by the play's cast. The lyrics consist of verses taken from
Kosta Racin's book of poetry Antologija bola (Anthology
of Pain). The score also features a selection of older tracks taken from
various Silence albums.
