JERRY SNELL INDUSTRIES

Angels of the Storm, 2004.

Circus Music Performance & DVD

“A strong fusion of live music and circus.”

— Carmen Ruest, Cirque du Soleil

“The mise en scene highlights pure emotions and the music goes right under the skin. A touching and beautiful performance.”

— La Presse, 11/04

“Black humour, acrobatic dance and electrifying music rarely seen at the circus.”

— Le Journal de Montréal, 11/04

“Snell Rocks!!!"
“Astounding, hilarious, compelling... a must see for both fans of contemporary circus and folks who still harbor the misguided opinion that all circus shows are shallow...!”

— The Gazette, 11/04

“Clowns, acrobats, and musicians in a rare encounter of explosive intensity...the audience was breathless. Hats off, we want more!”

— Ici Montréal, 11/04

“Techno-Industrial music in league with Nine Inch Nails successfully drives this audacious performance full of risks and completely not politically correct. We see a vision of the anarchy of our contemporary world, but also the vitality of the "New Generation" of circus artists full of hope for a better future.”

— Canoë, 11/04


Bone — the soundtrack, CD, 2004.

Music composed for the Beijing Modern Dance Company

“An amazingly rich and entirely seducing fusion.”

— Le Soleil, 10/04

“The music is sublime and extremely well elaborated.”

— Shanghai Drama, 10/03

— Le Devoir, 04/04


Cash — the album, CD, 2001.
