Just wanted to share with you this event,
The dancer, choreographer and director Victor Ullate is reprogramming the ballet "Beethoven" that he already premiered last year in Madrid.
It is a two-part ballet: First part is named "tres" (three) because it consists in the choreography for the piano sonatas nos. 2, 14 and 15, by another spanish choreographer. The second part is named "Pastoral" due to the fact it's a choreography is based on the Pastoral symphony.
Ullate said that the idea of creating a choreography for the symphony came from long ago but it wasn't until the sudden death of a teacher of his youth that made him conceive the choreography, that he describes as a chant to life.
This second part is divided in three movements: First based on youth, naivity and illusion on learning how it will be when they're adults, then puberty, first loves and ends with elder age with the knowledge acquired through the years, that concludes in a chaos and the rebirth of life.
I'm curious about the music arrangements, because the total duration of the ballet is 55 min.
There are some shorts on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMkRp...eature=related and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2eCn8dUrB0
