about
Goddesses and Rabbits is Iolini's homage to his mother, to all mothers and to Malta - the island of the Great Goddess.
Iolini takes us on a personal and at times surreal voyage of (re)discovery to his mother's homeland, the island of Malta. Along the way we encounter mysterious 7000-year-old megalithic goddess temples, Madonna cults, rabbit restaurants, and an eclectic assortment of characters.
This is a work that is simultaneously travelogue, drama, fiction, documentary, biography and contemporary opera!
Goddesses and Rabbits extends the boundaries of what traditionally defines a musical composition, using spoken word, songs, field recordings, electro-acoustic textures, improvised and detailed scored performances, all crafted into an original work for your listening pleasure.
