The award-winning Music & Silence is one of Tremain’s most popular works. Set in the court of Christian IV of Denmark during the seventeenth century it is a beautiful and enduring tale of love intrigue and betrayal. Part history part imagination Music & Silence lyrically evokes the rich tapestry of court life. The obsessions and secret woes of a host of memorable characters are brilliantly realised by Tremain who deftly weaves together the numerous sub-plots. We encounter a King tormented by his quest for perfection; the raucous and spoilt Kirsten raging against the constraints of her queenly situation; and the silently grieving Emilia.
