Season 2014/2015
Ballet

Tristan und Isolde

World premiere

“To drown, to founder - unconscious - utmost rapture!” Isolde’s last words at the end of the opera are the source of inspiration for the choreographer who has called upon Dorothée Gilbert and Mathieu Ganio, both étoile dancers at the Opéra National de Paris, to form a duo in the hour long performance of Tristan und Isolde. The two exceptional dancers are a perfect fit for the characters of Tristan and Isolde, in whom Giorgio Mancini wishes to breathe life into their souls during an evening of passion and emotion.

Giselle, ou les Wilis


The first part of the evening, performed by Maggiodanza ballet company, is the second act of Giselle , ou Les Wilis, staged in Florence's Teatro Comunale in 2013. This version of the romantic ballet masterpiece is a revisitation by Giorgio Mancini with a language that evokes the steps of traditional choreography, focusing on finding light moves, ethereal, without resistance. Elusive and spiritual. As a soul who tries to find herself.
