Opis
'Thomas Lebrun, 'Lied Ballet', Documentary by Jean-Marc Birrault, Thomas Lebrun's creed: 'To accept dance as pleasure, entertainment, a langage, a political statement, in its narrative and abstract forms. To accept beauty, strength and frailty, passion and emotion.', His work is colourful, often with a touch of burlesque - 'Tel quel!' a piece for younger audiences is highly comical - but he is equally at ease in a more sombre and literary vein. His production of 'Death and the Maiden' in 2012 established a strong bond between dance and music. With this new work 'Lied Ballet', premiered at the 2014 Avignon Festival, he faces a new challenge, and seeks to explore the sources of inspiration shared by the 'Lied', a major musical form in the Romantic era, and ballet. Thus, nature, night, wandering and love are at the heart of this new piece for eight dancers, for whom the pleasure of dancing is not an obstacle to contemporary writing. The art of movement, its significance and poetry will be the main driving force in this ballet, with lieder by Berg, Schubert and Mahler performed live by tenor Benjamin Alunni and pianist Thomas Besnard., Choreography, Thomas Lebrun, Dancers, Maxime Camo, Anthony Cazaux, Raphaël Cottin, Anne Ammanuelle Derro, Tatiana Julien, Anne Sophie Lancelin, Matthieu Patarozzi, Léa Scher, Vocal, Benjamin Alunni, ténor, Piano, Thomas Besnard, Music by Giacinto Scelsi, Alban Berg, Gustav Mahler, Arnold Schonberg, Franz Schubert, Musical creation by David François Moreau, Recorded at the Maison de la Danse de Lyon on October 8th 2014'
