Kylyra's Ishtar's Ascent is a theatrical auditory work combining spoken word, classical melodies, techno dance rhythms, live organics and haunting vocals to tell a tale based on "Of the Sleep of Ishtar" from the Necronomicon. Divided into three Acts (The Descent, In Hell & The Ascent), the listener follows Ishtar into Hell where she is tormented by her own thoughts and her sister, Ezrazellda, until she realizes no one has the power to keep her prisoner but herself. One of the most dramatic and moving stories told the way only Kylyra can. |
