【现代舞】Pina Bausch Orpheus and Eurydice

转自 YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PN7AiKqzlv8 The myth of Orpheus, though it has been told many ways, is primarily about an artist and art’s capacity to transcend. The heroic poet-musician Orpheus, after losing his wife, Eurydice, calms the deities of the Underworld with his lyre playing and singing. They permit him to lead her back to the world of the living. After he loses her a second time, he goes on invoking her. And, as many treatments show, his art continues after his death. The composer Gluck wrote three versions of his three-act Orpheus opera between 1762 and 1774. Each had a happy ending, with Eurydice restored to Orpheus by the god Love, and with successive group dances to celebrate Love’s triumph. German choreographer Pina Bausch, In her danced version of Gluck’s opera, performed over the weekend by the Paris Opera Ballet as part of the Lincoln Center Festival, Orpheus knows one art alone: grief. He shows no bravery in entering the realm of the dead, bears no lyre, demonstrates no wonder on beholding the Elysian Fields. You wonder why this Orpheus needs to be told not to look at Eurydice; he never looks at anyone anyway. After the final aria, widely known as Orpheus’ Lament, he dies. To accommodate this, Bausch, who died in 2009, drastically altered the musical text. 德國編舞家 Pina Bausch 在巴黎歌劇院芭蕾舞演出的歌劇芭蕾，作為林肯中心音樂節的一部分。 劇情大綱 奧菲斯是古希臘神話中太陽神阿波羅（Apollo）與歌唱女神卡莉歐碧（Calliope）的兒子。自幼才華橫溢，頗具音樂天賦，一雙深邃的眼睛似乎連上帝都為之憐憫。 傳說夏天的時候，奧菲斯總喜歡在森林中的小溪邊坐著，一邊彈奏豎琴一邊唱歌，山野中的動物聽得入迷，水中的魚兒也跟著翩翩起起舞……
