  • BALLET DU THÉÂTRE BOLCHOI Directeur Général Du Théâtre Bolchoï - Vladimir Urin Directeur Du Ballet Du Théâtre Bolchoï - Sergei Filin
    1 2 DÉCEMBRE La programmation 2014-2015 illustre avec force cette idée, chère aux Ballets de Monte-Carlo et à son Directeur Jean-Christophe Maillot, que tous les styles de danse peuvent se côtoyer. Cette année encore, la Compagnie des Ballets de Monte-Carlo, le Monaco Dance Forum et l’Académie Princesse Grace œuvreront de concert pour faire de la Principauté un lieu dédié à l’art chorégraphique et un espace de liberté unique en son genre. La saison proposera une palette de couleurs la plus large possible. Cette année les touches de couleurs s’appelleront Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, Emanuel Gat, Maguy Marin, Le Bolchoï, Le Béjart Ballet Lausanne, le Tokyo Ballet, parmi tant d’autres… Après une mise en bouche offerte par Les Imprévus fin octobre, le mois de décembre 2014 sera particulièrement généreux avec un Monaco Dance Forum qui fera converger vers le Rocher une pléiade de compagnies et de chorégraphes internationaux. Cette fin d’année verra d’abord la présentation d’une création poignante de Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui et de Yabin Wang où se rencontrent Orient et Occident. Le rêve se prolongera avec un spectacle en apesanteur de Mélissa Von Vépy, évoluant dans les airs telle une marionnette suspendue à des fils. Maguy Marin reviendra sur la scène du Grimaldi Forum avec une création qui ne manquera pas de nous transformer en nous interrogeant sur le rythme de la vie et ses possibles devenirs. La Compagnie La Veronal nous entrainera ensuite au cœur de la Renaissance toscane pour un ballet dense aux accents pasoliniens sur le corps et la matière humaine.

  • MOSCOW FORUM X Festival for Contemporary Music
    MOSCOW FORUM X Festival for Contemporary Music 1. TEN STEPS OF THE “FORUM” The beginning of the nineties […] A time when everything was possible. Some people opened up businesses, some people went into the government, whereas some people deviated from their professions. There was a mass exodus of composers to the West, comparable only to a similar exodus during the post-revolutionary years in Russia or to the situation in Germany during the 1930s. Here is an incomplete list of only Moscow- based composers who have left the country during that period: Alfred Schnittke, Sophia Gubaidulina, Vassily Lobanov and Alexander Raskatov moved to Germany, Elena Firsova, Dmitri Smirnov and Vladislav Shoot ended up in England, Leonid Hrabovsky moved to America and Nikolai Korndorf – to Canada, while Edison Denisov was compelled to relocate to France for medical treatment after a car accident. Following them, many younger composers, not being greatly on demand in their native land, go away in search for success to other countries more suitable for their professions. “A whole musical culture has left Russia” – this is how prof. Yuri Kholopov characterized the situation in one of the musicological conferences. Amid this cultural debris politicians were searching for a new national idea, economists were seeking a new life-saving economic model, while the average people in the street were scrambling together the means for a basic livelihood. “The tongue-less street is squirming – it has nothing by means it could scream of converse” – these lines by Mayakovsky had acquired a similar topicality in Russia at the end of the previous century as they had during the revolutionary years.

  • Press Release
    EXPECTATION / ERWARTUNG 1914 and the century after A RUSSO-AUSTRIAN MULTIDISCIPLINARY PROJECT MUSIC – VIDEO – DANCE – MULTIMEDIA The Center for Contemporary Music at the Moscow State Tchaikovsky Conservatory and the Austrian Cultural Forum in Moscow together with “das weisse haus Wien” Cultural Collective The Vsevolod Meyerhold Theater Center Fabrika Center for Creative Industries present in April-May 2014 the cultural project “EXPECTATION / ERWARTUNG.” The first concert of the project will take place APRIL 10 IN THE RACHMANINOV HALL OF THE TCHAIKOVSKY CONSERVATORY at 7 p.m. The performers will be the “New Music Studio” ensemble under conductor Igor Dronov. The idea for the project: “Expectation” is one of the most successful works by Austrian composer Arnold Schoenberg, which he wrote not long before the beginning of World War I in 1914. After 100 years, the creators of the project are bringing back this work and other masterpieces of that time as well as presenting 7 world premieres of multimedia compositions created specially for the “Expectation” project. “Expectation” will end with a series of performances by Austrian media artists in the framework of the Moscow “Museum Night” at the Fabrika Center for Creative Industries. Since the beginning of World War I, often called the “forgotten war,” a hundred years have passed.
