Zigger Zagger – Orfeo review

“Zigger Zagger: Orfeo is another brilliant turn from Richard Powers,” by Matthew Packer, New Zealand Listener, June 26, 2014.

At one level, Orfeo is a contemporary Fugitive-style thriller, a cross-country escapade in trying to outfox Homeland Security. But it’s also an exploration and history of the frontiers of modern music and art, loaded with insights into creativity, and a long kind of elegy for a few composers.
