Les ballets C de la B
Chorus and Orchestra of Teatro Real
Madrid Symphony Orchestra and Chorus
C(h)oeurs, a mix of Choirs (choeurs) and Hearts (coeurs) in French, is a new musical drama set against the backdrop of contemporary international economic crisis and national protests, and the ensuing changes in society.
Pursuing a reflection on the emotions felt by the individual and generated by the masses, singers from the internationally renowned Chorus of the Teatro Real perform alongside dancers of Alain Platel's company les ballets C de la B in a spectacular presentation of excepts from Verdi's and Wagner's distinct works.
Many works of Giuseppe Verdi and Richard Wagner are linked to the liberal revolutions of 1848, the "Springtime of Peoples", that swept away absolutism in Europe.
Each musical piece blends seamlessly into the next, drawn by the actions of the individuals and groups through the expressiveness of their singing and movement.
'To a wrenching litany of choruses by Verdi and Wager, from the Messa da Requiera to Tannhfiuser, 10 dancers intermingle with the theater's 72-person chorus in a continuous stream of dance, mock protest and stylized acting. The overall effect is enthralling ...' The Wall Street Journal Weekend - Jonathan Blitzer
