Program notes
Playlist # 1 weaves together excerpts from nine of the most celebrated and contrasting creations of Angelin Preljocaj, works that express "his choreographic vocabulary, his predilection for literary sources, introspection, and symbolism" (Marie Godfrin-Guidicelli)... From the Orwellian Romeo and Juliet (1996), to the provocative Le Parc, set in Louis XV’s Versailles, to the startlingly topical La Stravaganza, exploring immigration to America, to And then, one thousand years of peace’s mind-bending interpretation of the Book of Revelations that includes techno music, discover the genius and versatility of one of the most controversial choreographers of our time!
