"Histoire du soldat" live streamed from the Teatro Alighieri di Ravenna

On January 23, on ravennafestival.live, the Operas and Ballets Season opening show. Available for three months

New appointment on ravennafestival.live: on Saturday January 23rd, at 06:00 p.m. (CET), free streaming of Histoire du soldat by Igor Stravinskij, the opening of the Teatro di Tradizione Dante Alighieri in Ravenna’s 2020/21 Operas and Ballets Season.

It is a tribute to Igor Stravinsky on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of his death.

Composed in 1918, this work “To be told, played, and danced” cannot be described as an opera nor a ballet nor a play in music. As we can read in the Teatro Alighieri’s presentation notes, «it rather appears as a tale “illustrated” by music, scenes, and actions where every element has independent meaning and existence. (…) It breaks with the 19th-century opera tradition and yet possesses a rare theatrical strength».

New staging, a coproduction by Compagnia teatrale I Guitti, CamerOperEnsemble, Fondazione Ravenna Manifestazioni. Direction and concept by Luca Micheletti, concertazione and conduction by Angelo Bolciaghi.

The show will remain available on demand on the platform ravennafestival.live for three months.

For a better viewing on smartphones and tablets, the free iOS and Android apps of ravennafestival.live are available on the platform itself.
