The Musecal Detective by Hazel Smith and Roger Dean (Hazel Smith, text/text performance, Roger Dean, sound) | 1995 Written in 1995, this is a parodic inversion of the normal detective story genre. The piece employs multiple crimes which are superimposed upon each other, and the roles of writer, detective and murderer are deliberately blurred. The Musecal Detective also subverts the linear structure and dénouement of the classic detective story. Instead it utilises musical structures of variation, repetition, simultaneity and rhythmic propulsion, creating the further fusion between muse and music suggested by the title.
