ORPHEUS & EURYDIKE |
"Orpheus
and Eurydike" is the last opera
of Joseph Hayd. Written in 1791,
it is considered his most distinguished
composition and tells the tragic
Greek mythological love story of
Orpheus, who risks everything to
resurrect his dead wife, Eurydike.
In Berlin's Bode museum 2008 production,
Manu Laude choreographed, performed
and co-directed the Opera with German
director Christoph Hagel. Manu's
contributions proved groundbreaking
in Opera: he earned rave reviews
for reinventing the way audiences
experienced this 2,500 year old
work, by introducing various dance
styles to narrate this age old story.
Manu's experimentation paid off,
with two months of sell out shows.
