Eric Fraad, director and founder of the Irish label Heresy,
believes in music’s transformative power even in crisis. Moving
from New York to Dublin, he left traditional opera to create hybrid
works of music, theater, and dance. With Heresy, he champions
concept-driven projects spanning Irish traditions to Philip Glass,
aiming to revitalize classical music. His latest
film Partita blends Bach, poetry, and performance to
confront today’s global “polycrisis,” offering art as a path to
transcendence and renewal.
