Alexander’s Feast tells the tale of a banquet held by Alexander the Great, during which the famous Theban musician Timotheus sings and plays his lyre. Alexander is moved to extremes of emotion by the music, eventually burning down the captured Persian city of Persepolis in revenge for the loss of his soldiers.
