Wicked Tongues


The mouth is our speaking, our singing, our kissing organ. We devour, detect, taste, stutter, cluck, whistle, slurp, shout, bitch, pout, seduce, chatter, lie, love, kiss…. flirt and play the recorder…

In this programme we examine all activities by the mouth, its sensuality, its triviality, its skill. A composition by the Austrian composer Helmut Schmidinger serves as common thread through the programme and is interrupted by Renaissance pieces describing the art and craft of wicked tongues.
