The Song of Orpheus: Act II

In this episode, Act II of The Song of Orpheus, there is much ado - dancing and music, salty musicians, one with an unexpected Liverpudlian accent, a couple of dancers who seem to have left their virtue and veils at home, an impertinent attendant or two, not to mention, most importantly, the exceedingly stressed (due to a premonition of disaster) father of Orpheus and his invaluable aide overseeing Orpheus's wedding to the beloved Eurydice.

Despite the joy and happiness of the blessed event, tragedy (no spoiler alert here as you probably know this part of the story) strikes suddenly to take Eury away from Orpheus for the first, but (as you probably also well know ), assuredly, not the last time.

Tragicomedy indeed.
