“A hit with
the public, Mediterranea was
acclaimed by critics for its power…”
-Dance Magazine
La
Scala Ballet brings to the Teatro
degli Arcimboldi what could be
called a "sold out" premiere, which
has indeed been the case worldwide
for Mauro Bigonzetti’s much
celebrated Mediterranea, a
production that La Scala is adding
to its repertoire in world
exclusive.
On
this occasion, for the fifteenth
anniversary of the show (created for
the Balletto di Toscana in 1993),
Mauro Bigonzetti will give the La
Scala artists not only a revival but
a true choreographic adaptation.
With them and "on" them he will
renew the production while
maintaining its strength and colors,
and the sense of travel through the
musical cultures of the countries
that face each other on the mare
nostrum.
Mediterranea, which does not indulge
in the folklore but varies the
musical genres that range from
popular Turkish music to Ligeti and
Mozart to archaic Grecian melodies,
focuses on the gestures and the
moves in a refined balance between
lyricism and pure energy. |
