Roger updates

From Roger on Facebook:

"It's official; we are very pleased to announce that we will be performing two scenes from our new ballet Orpheus and Eurydice at a gala in Moscow on December 15th at the Kremlin Palace. Choreographed by Nikita Dimitrievsky with costumes designed by Irakli. Very, very excited about this, I will be playing on stage with four cellos and piano and Masha Semenyachenko will dance with her partner from the Bolshoi."

Update (11-19-15):

Rehearsals have begun in Moscow and I will be joining them on December 11th. https://t.co/z3r2Ez7woo Feeling very lucky to be doing this...

And another new project:

"It took me a while to get over Love and Other Tragedies emotionally and creatively but then I suppose you always need a break after releasing something...

Anyway I'm very excited to announce a new project which is a collaboration with Quartet Voluté and returns to a subject close to me The Crow.

A collection of six pieces of music for piano and string quartet based on Ted Hughes poems.

We're going to record it in December and the aim is to have it choreographed and a film made of the dance. Its nice to be inspired again and I have to thank somebody... they know who they are.

" 'Friday I'm in Love' featured heavily in iZombie Season 2 Episode 5 (aired Nov. 3rd, 2015) “Love & Basketball”.  One of the characters sang lyrics, referenced The Cure, and the actual song was played as well.  You can see the whole show here (scene starts around the 33:35 minute mark)."
