ALBUM starts from a basic concept that is as simple as it is rigorous: choreograph an entire album by a rock band as if it were music for a ballet, a Swan Lake whose sound material is, in this case, a work by Suicide, a 1970s New York punk duo. The needle of an old record player covers the entire A-side, then the B-side.
\nThe record player is the relentless force that drives the body through the seven tracks of the album: seven environments, seven rooms that portray a hypnotic and inescapable universe. The heart of the work, track n. 6 Frankie Teardrop, has been defined as one of the most chilling songs of the history of rock: […] Vega\u2019s crazed voice narrates, through murmurs and piercing screams, the story of Frankie, the factory worker who explodes at a certain point, killing his wife and child before committing suicide. It\u2019s an accusation against the consumption society that destroys the individual, as well as one of the most harrowing songs of the entire history of rock. […]\nOblique Strategies, a system of cards invented by Brian Eno in the 1970s to guide the creation of a work of art, also contributed to the creation of Album.
\nThe first card drawn was: be dirty.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\u201c[…] ALBUM choreography for an entire album by a rock group as if it was music for a ballet, that doesn\u2019t stop at the stylisation of forms of dance, but in line with the unwritten statute of contemporary dance translates its meaning, the explosive message of alienation and social criticism…”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

“…Flusso risonante che forte colpisce aggirando ogni possibile ricerca di significati. Stefano Questorio raggira il figurativo puntando al figurale: sentire, non dire. La bellezza, in questo lavoro si d\u00e0 nel pacifico connubio tra il positivo e il suo altro-da-s\u00e9; se il negativo non fosse, la performance non trasuderebbe brutale realt\u00e0. Album \u00e8 un’affascinante partitura coreografica ispirata all’intero album dei Suicide, duo punk newyorkese degli anni Settanta…”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u201c[\u2026] l\u2019opera di Stefano Questorio esplode alle 20.45, con un preciso obiettivo: regalare anche al mondo del Punk Rock un balletto iconico. [\u2026]\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u201c[\u2026] Questorio, rigoroso e ammirevole interprete, inizia la sua danza macabra sdraiato, scosso dai tremiti; progressivamente si erge in un ambiente che pare vischioso, seguendo il ritmo meccanico e spietato impostogli dalla musica, fino a spogliarsi ora dei vestiti ora della sua stessa \u201cmuta\u201d, strappandosi via affannosamente sfoglie di pelle\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
