Mediterranea
La Scala Ballet brings to the Teatro degli Arcimboldi the much celebrated Mediterranea. On this occasion, for the fifteenth anniversary of the show, Mauro Bigonzetti will give the La Scala artists not only a revival but a true choreographic adaptation. With them and "on" them he will renew the production while maintaining its strength and colours, and the sense of travel through the musical cultures of the countries that face each other on the mare nostrum.
“A hit with the public, Mediterranea was acclaimed by critics for its power…” – Dance Magazine
Synopsis
Mauro Bigonzetti choreographs an abstract, imaginary journey through the Mediterranean world. Mediterranea does not indulge in folklore but varies the musical genres ranging from popular Turkish music to Ligeti and Mozart to archaic Grecian melodies. There is a focus on gestures and moves in a refined balance between lyricism and pure energy.
