Infidel is structured as a series of monologues from the main character, Hugh, broken up by scenes from his past. Throughout the show, thematic music is used to bridge the transition between the past and the present.
Every time we return to Hugh and his monologue, the audience hears a time-changing sound effect followed by this melancholy piece designed to enhance the feeling of true desolation.
This musical piece is an original composition.

"The Venetians" begins with a time-changing sound effect, used throughout the show, followed by some quirky music associated with some equally quirky fellows called the Venetians. They try to swindle Hugh through the purchase of rare artifacts that could "aid him" on his journey.

This show took place in a Black Box Theatre, setup in the round, so set pieces were not able to define the space. "Egyptian Marketplace" seeks to do that through a more Middle Eastern styled take on the show's musical motif, with a hammered dulcimer, flute, and the sounds of a bustling marketplace.

At the height of the show, Hugh recalls a battle he witnessed, and the great amount of destruction that came from it. "The Storming of Damietta" accents Hugh's sorrow while using various sound effects of distant fighting and weeping to aid his retelling.
This musical piece is an original composition, and was the inspiration for most of the other pieces in the show.

At the end of the show, all of the characters Hugh interacted with swarm him, with their voices amplified in this final dramatic moment. Between each recorded line, Hugh responds, trying to escape his guilt and trauma.
While this is not an original musical composition, the synth was added to tie the piece to the rest of the musical motifs.
