SUMMARY:Vienna\, Austria (Burden Loops)
DESCRIPTION:https://www.volksoper.at/production/carmen-suite-2027.en.html \nBallets by Eno Peci and Alberto Alonso \nIn a new creation Eno Peci examines the moments before a decision that are characterised by doubt\, pressure and reticence. Burden Loops does not tell us of finding the “right path” so much as of living in a state where the decision itself becomes an endurance test. Within their movement vocabulary\, the dancers also find themselves in a moment of pause – between expectation and uncertainty\, the urge to move and a lack of orientation. Here their bodies become the means of expressing the tension between a requirement to act and the uncertainty of its outcome.  \n“Sometimes I would think: why did Bizet write an opera? It should be a dance!” is what the legendary prima ballerina Maya Plisetskaya said about the work that she would dance in a creation by the Cuban choreographer Alberto Alonso and which became a remarkable triumph for her.  \nTo an arrangement for percussion and strings by Rodion Shchedrin\, whose percussive and pointed instrumentation recast Bizet’s composition in a new mood\, Alonso choreographed a truly expressionist ballet. Set in a bullring\, whose animal symbolism Alonso associates with the strength and power that makes Carmen who she is\, the choreographer concentrates entirely on a woman who wants to live a free and independent life. As a result\, the stage provides the scene not for a love triangle but for an existential struggle for freedom\, passion and self-determination.   \nLeading TeamBurden Loops \nChoreografieEno Peci \nMusikPhilip Glass \nStage and costume designDiego Rojas Ortiz \nLighting designJohannes Schadl \nCarmen SuiteChoreografieAlberto AlonsoMusikRodion Schtschedrin nach dem Original von Georges Bizet \nStage and costume designSalvador Fernández nach dem Original von Boris Messerer

SUMMARY:Hamburg\, Germany (Opening\, Etudes Nos.3 & 15)
DESCRIPTION:https://www.elbphilharmonie.de/en/whats-on/vikingur-olafsson-piano-recital/27923 \nPHILIP GLASS 90TH BIRTHDAY TRIBUTERameau\, Debussy and Glass may initially appear to be a very strange threesome. However\, when listening to their piano works\, the intriguing musical relationship between them soon becomes clear. All three artists used shades and colours in their compositions to create unique musical paintings that we can hear in a musical dialogue at this recital by Víkingur Ólafsson. The secret of Ólafsson’s ability to reveal the rich spectrum of colour in any piece of music lies in his synaesthesia. This rare gift means he can see colours when he hears music\, and it played a key role in his discovery of the deep connection between Jean-Philippe Rameau\, Claude Debussy and Philip Glass. Despite living in different eras\, the trio shared an understanding of harmonies and colours and how these can seem to dissolve into space and time. The three composers also have one more thing in common. Víkingur Ólafsson dedicated his first and third CDs to them in recordings that propelled him to a new pinnacle of success. \nPROGRAMM \nPhilip Glass \nGlassworks – 1.
