Inhalt: |
With the Messa da Requiem, Christian Spuck brought one of Verdis key works to the stage. ln a Iarge-scale co-production by the BaIIett and Oper Zürich, the German choreograp-her and director ventured to portray an unusuaI interpretation of Verdis funeraI mass in his scenic-choreographic production. 36 dancers, the choir and supplementary choir of the Opernhaus Zürich as weII as four highIy acclaimed soIoists joined together under the direction of Fabio Luisi for 13 wide-ranging scenes dedicated to one of the most fundamental themes of humanity. Christian Spuck does not seek a mere religious interpretation of the liturgical text. Instead, he is interested in focusing on people who, in their vulnerabiIity and heIplessness, are in the search for comfort. In poetic tabIeaux he deaIs with basic human emotions and focuses on the feelings of fear, rage, pain, sadness and the search for redemption. |
